Set in 19th-century New York, it is the story of Catherine (Olivia de Havilland), a shy, awkward spinster with a sizable inheritance, whose father (Ralph Richardson) objects to her involvement with the charming but poor Morris Townsend (Montgomery Clift). She becomes possessed by the promise of romance. Are his smoldering professions of love sincere, as she believes they are? Or is Catherine's calculating father correct in judging Morris a venal fortune seeker? Based on a hit stage adaptation of HENRY JAMES's Washington Square.
