Montgomery Clift stars as George Eastman, a working-class young man determined to win a place in respectable society and the heart of a beautiful socialite (Elizabeth Taylor). Shelley Winters plays the factory girl whose dark secret threatens Eastman's professional and romantic prospects. George Stevens' 1951 film was based on a 1925 novel and a 1926 play that were inspired by real-life events.
