Love Among the Ruins

A retired great lady, a former actress in the British theater, finds herself in a legal tangle. She stands accused--by a much younger man--of seducing him and tossing him aside without means to care for himself. As the period of this film is the early 1900s, this causes quite the scandal. In order to end her legal worries, the actress hires the greatest lawyer in England to help her resolve her case. Keeping things interesting, the lawyer happens to be a former lover who still remains in love with her.
