Ryan's Daughter is a 1970 film directed by David Lean.[2][3] The film, set in 1916, tells the story of a married Irish woman who has an affair with a British officer during World War I, despite opposition from her nationalist neighbours. The film is a very loose adaptation of Gustave Flaubert's novel Madame Bovary.

"A study of the inner workings of the human mind" and what is missing from today's shallow movies. This movie is storytelling at it's best and is up there with the best films ever made. A true masterpiece.

David Lean seemed to make a lot of films about cheating spouses. He always makes it out to be so romantic, but unless it's based on some really great book like "Dr. Zhivago", it generally just...isn't romantic, it's kind of pathetic. I still enjoy the film but I feel bad for Robert Mitchum's character.

Not a story of love at all- just lust.
