Plot Synopsis
Storyline
Olivia Harwood, missionary's widow, meets charming Mark Bellis, artist and rogue, on the ship taking them both back to 1890s London. When Olivia opens a lodging house Mark becomes her lodger, then her lover. Olivia falls so completely under amoral Mark's spell that he's able to overcome her scruples, and soon she's his willing tool in an ambitious scheme of theft and blackmail...maybe too ambitious. Written by Rod Crawford <puffinus@u.washington.edu>

Trivia
Elements of the plot are based on the mysterious death of barrister Charles Bravo in 1876. See more »Goofs
After the ship docks in Liverpool the two lead characters are seated on the dock talking. In a close up of Milland while he says his lines, "... I must have talked incessantly..." there is a shadow across both shoulders. In an instant, in the wider shot, there is no such shadow. See more »Frequently Asked Questions

I've casually caught this oldie on a regional network and remained very positively surprised: this movie is a little masterpiece, a misknown jewel of Hollywood false english style and probably the most underrated of the "flamboyant" melodramas of the period. A compelling psychological study for its time, with an absolutely outstanding Ann Todd(I've seen her in "The Paradine case" and sincerely I didn't expect such a performance from her). Both Milland and Fitzgerald, moreover, provide a strong support and the soundtrack is very compelling (if somewhere excessive).
