01 / THE STORY
A little about the film.
The story begins with an aging, alcoholic woman (Vivien Leigh) being clapped into debtor's prison in the slums of Calais. In a husky, despairing, whiskey-soaked voice, the former Lady Hamilton narrates the story of her life to her skeptical fellow inmates. In one of the early scenes that launches the flashback, Emma, well past her prime, looks into a mirror and remembers "the face I knew before," the face of the young, lovely girl who captured the imagination of artists -- most notably George Romney (painter) and Joshua Reynolds.
