Synopsis:
Hester Collyer is a nervous woman, married to a pillar of society, Sir William Collyer, a judge, whose reputation is of the highest order.  She leaves Sir William to go off with a Royal Air Force pilot, Freddie Page, an irresponsible type of man, whose behavior is coupled with a drinking problem.  Confused by her situation, Hester tries to commit suicide, but is saved by a gambler, Miller, who had once been a doctor.  Because Miller lives upstairs, he comes to see her often, provides her with professional services, and socializes with Hester.  In an apartment next door lives Dawn Maxwell, who does not mind her own business.  Although Sir William wants Hester back, she nonetheless desires something that might be better than an undependable Freddie and the boring life with her husband.  Listening to Miller’s advice that a man does not necessarily have to be the way to happiness, Hester learns she can create her own life.
