Synopsis
This romance is set in Tyrol, western Austria. Previously filmed in 1928, the sentimental Margaret Kennedy novel The Constant Nymph was sumptuously remade by Gaumont-British Picture Corporation in 1933. Victoria Hopper plays the title character, a rich, Belgian gamine named Tessa Sanger. The girl falls hopelessly in love with world-famous composer Lewis Dodd (Brian Aherne), who is so full of himself that he barely acknowledges Tessa's existence. As she looks on in quiet desperation, Dodd marries another woman, his distant cousin Florence (Leonora Corbett). It takes him nearly the entire picture to realize what a fool he's been, and that Tessa was the one girl for him all along—but alas, it's too late. The Constant Nymph was remade by Warner Bros. in 1943, at which time all prints of the 1933 version were supposed to be destroyed, however, several prints did survive.Actors

Angleterre, 1673. John Reid écrit ses mémoires : Lors de la révolution anglaise, il a onze ans lorsque les Doone, seigneurs d'Exeter pour lesquels travaille son père métayer, se voient confisquer leurs terres par le nouveau roi Charles II, à la suite de la mort de Cromwell, qu'ils soutenaient lors du conflit. Les Reid et tous les fermiers de la région se réjouissent de ces sanctions car les Doone sont cruels ; ils refusent désormais de continuer à leur payer des impôts. Les Doone ne l'entendent pas de cette oreille, et tuent le père de John Reid. L'enfant jure de se venger, et le fait savoir aux fils Doone et à leur cousine, Lorna (enfants tout comme lui) quand il les rencontre pour la première fois. Devenu adulte, John Reid, outré par les lourdes taxes sur les cultures imposés par les Doone, prend la tête d'une révolte.
