IMDb profile

Plenty is a 1985 movie centered around Susan Traherne, a woman who has been irreparably changed by her experiences in WWII as a fighter for the French Resistance. She is now determined to achieve what she wishes in the post-war world, which, after her time away, she appears to find trivial and inadequate, while acting with complete disregard for everybody around her. The film is a screen adaptation of David Hare's play of the same name.
