Easy Virtue
Can she be blamed for a past she didn't create?
Directed by Alfred Hitchcock
Produced by Gainsborough Pictures
A romantic melodrama about a woman fleeing scandal who finds love but cannot escape her past, told with the visual elegance and moral complexity of 1920s silent cinema.
Unjustly accused of adultery in a scandalous divorce, Larita Filton flees to the French Riviera. She soon falls in love with a young Englishman, John Whittaker, and begins anew under an assumed name. But when John brings her home to his disapproving family, Larita’s past begins to resurface.
