Based on the novel Washington Square by Henry James
Directed by Meredith Dooley

1840s Manhattan, New York. Catherine Sloper is the shy, awkward heiress to a vast fortune, who attract the attention of Morris Townsend, a handsome, ambitious, yet penniless young man. While Catherine's romantically-inclined aunt promotes his advances, her father is convinced Morris’ motives are purely mercenary and threatens to disinherit her. 

Based on the novel Washington Square by Henry James, Ruth and Augustus Goetz' play was made into a film in 1949 starring Olivia de Havilland in the title role.
