Sinopsis
First published in 1929, Dodsworth tells the story of a well-to-do American couple, Sam and Fran, who move to Europe and learn that they don't have much in common. When the woman becomes involved with another man and falls into the spell of romantic Europe, her husband must choose between forgiving his wife or abandoning the relationship and returning to America alone.
