[edit] Plot

Libby Meredith (Bergman) and her husband, Roger (Weaver) move from New York to a small house in backwoods Tennessee. Their neighbor, Will Cade (Quinn), is very helpful to them and to Libby especially. While her intellectual husband is busy writing a book and paying her little attention, she comes to like the country life and finds herself attracted to Will's rural sensibilities. Though he is married to Ann (Gregg), Will and Libby start up a middle-aged affair. Libby's daughter, Ellen (Crawford), arrives asking for help raising her son while she attends Harvard. Soon enough, Will's son (Tom Fielding) finds out about the affair and assaults Libby, leading to drastic consequences for all.
