A series of romantic feature films
starring Olivia de Havilland, Richard Burton
Based on the novel by Daphne du Maurier

Written and produced by Nunnally Johnson

A late-nineteenth-century tale of love, death, and revenge is set in Italy and Cornwall, the latter having formed the background to many of Daphne du Maurier's other tales. This was the film that really established Richard Burton as a major screen actor and resulted in a Hollywood contract.
