A Bill of Divorcement (1940)

Synopsis

After fifteen years in a mental asylum, Hilary Fairfield has suddenly regained his sanity, escaped from the institution and come home. But a few things have changed in his absence. For one, his strong-willed daughter Sydney has grown up and is planning to marry. For another, his wife has divorced him and is planning to re-marry. It’s enough to drive a man crazy – or a woman, for that matter. Especially when Sydney learns it wasn’t “shell shock” that send her father to the asylum, but family madness — and now she’s sure she’s inherited it.
