"Armand Duval, aspiring law student and scion of a wealthy family, becomes infatuated with Marguerite Gautier, who calls herself "Camille." In his naivete, he does not realize she is a notorious prostitute known in every house of debauchery in Paris. Armand abandons both his studies and his family for her, and the two lovers while away the days in an idyllic countryside retreat. They survive on money pulled from Armand's share of the Duval family fortune. When Armand's father learsn of this, he becomes enraged, and orders Marguerite to never see his son again. Devastated, she returns to her former life of ill repute. Visiting a vice den one night, Marguerite encounters a drunken Armand, who mistakenly believes she left him for a richer man. The two former lovers have been given one last chance to rekindle their romance, or remain strangers forever..."--Container. |
