Amerikanische Freundinnen (1991)
1864: In den Schweizer Bergen lernt der englische Professor Ashby die unkonventionelle Amerikanerin Elinor kennen. Die macht aus ihrer Zuneigung zu ihm keinen Hehl. Doch Ashby muss wieder nach Oxford, weil Rektoratswahlen anstehen. Plötzlich taucht dort Elinor mit ihrer Adoptivmutter auf. Ashbys Wahlrivale erweist sich Elinors Reizen gegenüber keineswegs als blind.
