Le même soir, le secrétaire de la police ottomane, Mehmed Pacha, déclare au colonel que le Britannique est directeur de l'administration de la dette publique ottomane, il peut être un homme puissant dont il faudrait se méfier. Falkland est marié à Lady Mary, une femme presque enfantine, très affligée par l'échec de son mariage et la vie dans l'Empire. Quand Sévigné fait la connaissance de Lady Mary, il est impressionné par l'amour et la tendresse avec laquelle la femme parle de son fils.

Au début du XIX siècle, à Londres, George, alias « Beau » Brummell, un jeune roturier devenu militaire, consacre toute son énergie à l'emporter sur ses rivaux mondains par l'élégance et par l'esprit. Il parvient ainsi à gagner l'amitié éblouie du régent, le prince de Galles, rejeton obèse, futile et despotique du roi fou George III. Désormais favori à la cour, il se demande aussi, entre deux choix cornéliens de cravate, s'il convient d'épouser sa maîtresse, l'ensorcelante Lady Patricia...

Steven Kenet catches his unfaithful wife in the apartment of Willard I. Whitcombe, her boss, and apparently strangles her. Believing he killed her, he attempts to commit suicide by driving his car into the river, even though they have a 6-year-old son. Kenet survives but is sent to the county psychiatric hospital for evaluation to determine if he is sane enough to be charged with murder. He has no memory of what happened, likely due to a pre-existing brain injury from the war.

Set in Sweden, the film is shown in flashbacks in the course of a trial in which a young woman with a half-hidden face, Anna Holm, is charged with murder. The events, as described by the witnesses, begin years before when aristocrat Torsten Barring hosts a party at a tavern. The guests include Vera, the faithless wife of noted plastic surgeon Gustaf Segert. When the tavern refuses to extend his credit, Torsten meets the proprietress Anna — whose face is badly scarred from a fire 22 years ago caused by her father. Torsten treats Anna as if she is beautiful and charming rather than scarred and unpleasant. Anna is suspicious, and Torsten implies that he may need her help in the future.

Ce film raconte la vie quelque peu romancée de Peter Henlein, un serrurier et horloger de Nuremberg à la fin du XV et du début du XVI siècle, souvent considéré comme l'inventeur de la montre, dite "L'œuf de Nuremberg", même si cela est discuté. Il s'agit de l'apologie d'une vie d'humanité, de conscience et de labeur.
