EASSY VIRTUE
Another of his bitter-sweet dramas. Young Johnny finally returns from France, but he is accompanied, to his family's dismay, an attractive wife several years older than he. How dare he! And in prim old England no less. So here is the class struggle, the jealousies, the straight-laced, stiff-upper lip of British society versus anyone not of their social standing. Somewhat in the vein of Private Lives, lacking the wry wit, but
with all of the melodrama.
