About this movie

In 1838 a beautiful Swiss governess and an English landowner, meet for three days to satisfy the terms of a secret business agreement. He will give her money to pay her father's debts and in return she will give him a child. The powerful desires awakened by this brief encounter draw them together seven years later when, without his knowledge and in his absence, she is hired as the governess to their daughter. Forced together under the same roof and held apart by the conventions of the time, they are freed only in the magic of the firelight.

My all-time favorite movie! I can't even count how many times I've seen it. I have it on VHS, DVD, & now Digital. Yeah! Lol.

This reminds me of one of my romance novels. The actress is beautiful and the male hero is straight out of medieval times.

Lovely fun with pretty music. The little girl that played Louisa is fantastic. Serve You Right!
