Summary
"[The film] tells the story of the coming of age of Lucy Honeychurch. Longing to burst free from the repression of British upper class manners and mores of the early 1900's, she must wrestle with her inner romantic longings to choose between the passionate George and the priggish but socially suitable Cecil." -- Container
