Description
"This heartbreakingly beautiful indictment of 1950s American mores follows the blossoming love between a well-off widow and her handsome and earthy younger gardener. When their romance prompts the scorn of her children and country-club friends, she must decide whether to pursue her own happiness or carry on a lonely, hemmed-in existence for the sake of the approval of others. A profoundly felt film about class and conformity in small-town America"--Container.
