Description: Catherine Sloper (Olivia de Havilland) is a plain, painfully shy woman whose emotionally detached father, New York physician Austin Sloper, makes no secret of his disappointment in her. Catherine falls madly in love with Morris Townsend and they plan to elope. Dr. Sloper threatens to disinherit his daughter if she marries Morris, and they have a bitter argument in which he makes his disdain for her.
