Respected politician and devoted husband Christopher Strong forms a deep attraction to his free-spirited aviatrix neighbor (and lone spirit) Cynthia Darrington, leading to an unexpected but intensive affair which burns brightly before coming to a point of crisis. This uncommon drawing room drama, featuring an electrifying Katharine Hepburn, is a fascinating rehearsal of sophisticated attitudes (especially between women) toward love and marriage.
