In the early 1930s, middle-aged doctor Douglas Meredith (Sean Connery) arrived at a Swiss Alpine chalet in the company of Kate (Betsy Brantley), a much younger woman he introduced as his wife. Local guide Johann (Lambert Wilson) agrees to lead them on a mountain-climbing excursion, but the elements--and his growing attraction to Kate--lead to sobering discoveries about the true nature of his charges’ relationship. Affecting, picturesque drama co-stars Isabel Dean, Anna Massey; final directing credit for Fred Zinnemann. 108 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono.
