Synopsis: After eighteen years as a political prisoner in the Bastille, the aging Doctor Manette is finally released and reunited with his daughter in England. There the lives of two very different men, an exiled French aristocrat and a disreputable English lawyer, become enmeshed in their love for her. They are drawn against their will to the bloodstained streets of Paris at the height of the Reign of Terror, and they soon fall under the lethal shadow of La Guillotine.
