Description
|
|
|
|
Deemed nouveau riche and shunned by elitist New York society, sisters Nan (Carla Gugino) and Virginia St. George (Alison Elliott) try their luck in London, in this lavish five-part BBC series from 1995, based on the unfinished last novel by Edith Wharton. An old friend, glamorous Brazilian bad girl Conchita Closson (Mira Sorvino)—recently married to a dissolute British lord—helps the sisters navigate the labyrinthine social world of 1870s England. With their vivacious personalities and large dowries, the girls have little trouble attracting potential suitors, but soon learn that love and marriage do not necessarily mix with the grim Victorian realities of responsibility, repression, and repetitiveness.
