Based on the novella by W. Somerset Maugham, Up At The Villa is set in late-1930s Italy where a young widow (Thomas) is contemplating her future. Almost broke, she must consider the proposal of marriage from a man she does not love. After a party, the widow involves herself with a musician, but determines that she must not prolong the affair. The musician, thinking himself madly in love with the widow, kills himself, and she turns to a dashing American expatriot for help. (Laurie Sevano)
