An 18th century Countess (Danielle Darrieux) sells off the earrings given to her as a wedding gift from her officer husband, in order to clear some debts. This action sets in train a number of events that jeopardize her social position and threaten to destroy her marriage. Influential critic Andrew Sarris regarded Max Ophuls' elegant melodrama as the greatest film of all time.
