ABOUT ME

I am also known as "the most beautiful woman in the world." I was married to a wealthy Irishman, though later I became the mistress of the Prince of Wales (King Edward VII). Through my society connections I befriended Sarah Bernhardt, who convinced me to try acting; I made my debut at London's Haymarket Theatre in 1881.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The film begins in Paris, somewhere around the year 1902. Claude Roc, a young middle-class Frenchman, meets Ann Brown, a young Englishwoman, and they become quick friends. Ann invites Claude to spend the holidays at her family's mansion, where we meet Ann's widowed mother and younger sister Muriel. During the holidays, Claude, Ann and Muriel become very close and Claude gradually falls in love with Muriel. Not fully knowing the couple's intentions, both families lay down a one-year-long separation without any contact before agreeing to get married. Claude goes back to Paris when he has many love affairs, and eleven months later he sends Muriel a break-off letter. A despondent Muriel sinks into a deep depression, and upon returning to Paris to defend her sister, Ann falls for Claude. This instigates a love triangle that consumes the threesome for the next twenty years.
