In 1943, a Wren (Calvert) and a RAF pilot (Granger) meet at an auction of heirlooms of the Rohan family, now all being sold off after the last of the Rohan male line, the brother of the Wren, was killed at Dunkirk.

Meanwhile, the story of the Rohan family is told in a flashback: Clarissa (also played by Calvert), a minor heiress, is put into an arranged marriage with Lord Rohan (Mason), a brutish misanthrope who begins an affair with Clarissa's friend Hesther (Lockwood), who plots to take her place, while Clarissa finds comfort in Rokeby (also played by Granger).

* DontYouDarePityMe: Hesther is introduced with her family having fallen on hard times, and her resenting having to live off charity.
* EarnYourHappyEnding: Sort of. After Clarissa and Rokeby's romance ends tragically, their descendants in the present fall in love, their love affair seeming better-fated than that of their ancestors.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Though Lord Rohan did not love Clarissa, she was still his wife and a Rohan, and so when [[spoiler:he discovers that Hesther killed her to marry Rohan, he beats Hesther to death]].

* IdenticalGrandson: Clarissa and Rokeby's descendants, the Wren and the RAF pilot, are identical to them.
* WholeEpisodeFlashback: The bulk of the film is contained within short vignettes that occur in the (then) present of 1943.
