Elizabeth Gaskell

Elizabeth Gaskell's tale of love across the social divide is brought to life this powerful adaptation. When Margaret Hale exchanges her rural life for a northern mill town, she witnesses first hand the poverty of the working classes. She also meets John Thornton. Initially, Margaret despises him while he finds her wilful and proud, but they are increasingly drawn to each another.
