The Constant Wife

When Mortimer Durham storms into the Middletons’ home revealing that Constance’s husband is having an affair with his wife, Constance refuses to create a scene. A year later, and financially independent, Constance feels entitled to sexual independence. She announces that she will, as John has done, take a short revivifying break by having a holiday with an early admirer, leaving John first outraged and then appreciative of his remarkable wife. Edward Hall directs The Constant Wife.
