W. Somerset Maugham's delightfully witty comedy of manners and mistresses of the very rich in 1920's London, tells the tale of a "modern" marriage. All of Constance Middleton's friends can't wait to tell her of her husband's affair with her best friend -- but clever Constance has a few ideas of her own about marriage, infidelity and female independence! When an old admirer shows up at her door, what's sauce for the gander may just turn out to be sauce for the goose.
