The Return of the Native
Directed by Jack Gold
Produced by BBC
A melancholic period romance centered on a woman's restless desire and the tragic entanglements it creates among three characters bound to an isolated English heath.
Eustacia Vye, an exquisite beauty despairing at her boring life on an English moor, sets up a fateful lovers' triangle when she uses her wiles to entice two men, a dashing suitor and a successful man who made his name abroad and returned to his home on the heath.
