Starring Joanna Shimkus, Franco Nero, Honor Blackman, Mark Burns, Fay Compton and Maurice Denham. D. H. Lawrence's most electrifying novel comes to life on the silver screen! This movie is based on a short novel by D. H. Lawrence that was discovered in France after his death in 1930. Immediately recognized as a masterpiece in which Lawrence had distilled and purified his ideas about sexuality and morality, the story has become a classic. Set in a small village in the English countryside, this is the story of a secluded, sensitive rector's daughter who yearns for meaning beyond the life to which she seems doomed. When she meets a handsome young gipsy whose life appears different from hers in every way, she is immediately smitten and yet still paralyzed by her own fear and social convention. Not until a natural catastrophe suddenly, miraculously sweeps away the world as she knew it does a new world of passion open for her. Lawrence's spirit is infused by all his tenderness, passion, and knowledge of the human soul.
