Plot Summary

When lovely, virtuous governess Henriette Deluzy comes to educate the children of the debonair Duc de Praslin, a royal subject to King Louis-Philippe and the husband of the volatile, obsessive Duchesse de Praslin, she instantly incurs the wrath of her mistress, who is insanely jealous of anyone who comes near her estranged husband. Though she saves the duchess's little son from a near-death illness and endears herself to all the children, the vengeful duchess dismisses her. Meanwhile, the attraction between the duke and Henriette continues to grow, eventually leading to tragedy. Written by alfiehitchie

Did You Know?

Edit
Trivia The budget for this film was much higher than for a typical Warner Bros. production (the studio was infamous for cutting corners on every conceivable aspect of a picture). This time, however, studio head Jack L. Warner wanted a film that would give the kind of prestige to Warners that Gone with the Wind (1939) did to MGM, so he spared no expense in trying to achieve that goal. See more »
Goofs The Duchess of Praslin is seen licking envelopes in which she has placed letters to her husband, the Duc de Praslin. This film is set in the 1840s; gummed envelopes would not be invented for another 100 years. Correspondence in the 1840s would not be placed in a #10 business envelope either, as seen in the film. The letters would be placed in another sheet of paper and then sealed over with a wax seal or simply folded over and sealed with a wax seal, and sometimes a ribbon would be set in the wax as well.

Quotes Duc de Praslin: Why are you smiling? May I share whatever pleases you so?
Henriette Deluzy-Desportes: You will think I am very silly, I'm afraid, but standing here like this with the snow falling reminds of something I used to know. Do you remember a little round glass globe that...
Duc de Praslin: Oh yes, I know, with a snow scene inside. We had a paperweight on a desk at home like that. You shook it and the snow whirled around out from nowhere in a blinding storm.
Henriette Deluzy-Desportes: Yes, that's exactly what I mean.
Duc de Praslin: And if you looked closely enough the whole world seemed to be obliberated and shut out.
