  • "A traveller on a train smells the burn of brakes on the rails as the train stops suddenly in the countryside. Looking out the window, he sees a white-faced woman leap from the train in aid of a stranded sheep. The image lodges in his mind, a familiar despair he knows."
  • "Les années 20 en Angleterre sont les cadre de ce récit d'aventures et de passion qui allie impertinence et malice."

  • "Sylvester Wykes is on his usual train ride home to London when suddenly he smells the burn of brakes as the emergency cord is pulled and the train hisses to a stop in the middle of the countryside. A white-faced woman has leapt from the moving train to save a sheep stranded near the tracks. As the other passengers look on in horror and embarrassment, Wykes sees something more: a face full of anguish. He is captivated by the woman, and continues to watch as she leaves the train and threads her way through the hurrying crowd. Dressed in a long black coat down to her ankles and a big black hat pulled low over her nose, she reminds him of Greta Garbo in the film Ninotchka, seen long ago in black and white."@en
  • "A comedy of manners that begins when a woman in England pulls the emergency cord to stop a train and save an injured sheep. She is Julia Piper, returning from the funeral of her husband and her son. Julia's action attracts the attention of two men on the train and love follows."
