Sinopsis

Lily Bart es una conocida belleza que hace furor entre los caballeros de la alta sociedad, pero acaba dándose cuenta de la precariedad de su posición cuando sus encantos empiezan a provocar la envidia ajena. Indecisa entre sus sentimientos y lo que le dicta la razón, Lily siempre hace lo que debe en los peores momentos. La búsqueda de un marido rico que cumpla con las expectativas sociales, no sólo le hará perder la posibilidad de un amor verdadero con Lawrence Selden, sino que la llevará a ser acusada falsamente de mantener una relación con un hombre casado. El escándalo hará que sus amigos y la sociedad la repudien.
