Under the Daisies

A critic, John Mears, retreats to the countryside to recover his health and learns of a legacy tied to his bachelorhood. There, he meets and falls in love with Viola, the daughter of a local farmer. Over time, Mears' broken promises and neglect lead to Viola's heartbreak. As she struggles with her emotions, a tragic event unfolds, and her heartfelt writing finds its way into the hands of playwright Robert Burton. Inspired by her story, Burton creates a successful play, unknowingly drawing from Viola’s pain. Mears, upon recognizing the truth behind the play, is left to confront the consequences of his actions.
