Romance

Sent to secure husbands and titles, young American women explode into the tightly corseted London season of the 1870s, kicking off an Anglo-American culture clash. Based on Edith Wharton’s unfinished final novel.

Matt Roush says...

The frothy period romance takes a sharp turn into tragic melodrama when runaway wife Jinny (Imogen Waterhouse) realizes the lengths to which her abusive husband Lord James Seadown (Barney Fishwick) will go to control her and take custody of their baby son. Jinny and her helpmate Guy (Matthew Broome) say goodbye to Italy and return to England, where the friend group of American expats and their British allies rally to her cause. But will it be enough?
