The Marriage Circle
The oft told story. His Best Friend and His Wife and ---
A witty, fast-paced silent-era romantic comedy about marital infidelity and desire, built on sparkling social comedy and romantic entanglement rather than depth.
An unhappily married couple moves to Vienna, where the wife’s married best friend lives, and soon, sparks fly between the wife and the best friend’s husband.
