Australian director Stephan Elliott has started shooting a movie version of Noel Coward’s witty social comedy “
Easy Virtue,” starring Jessica Biel, Colin Firth and Kristin Scott Thomas.
Coward’s 1924 play is the story of a young Englishman who falls foul of his parents when he impetuously marries a glamorous American divorcee in the South of France. His mother takes an instant dislike to her new daughter-in-law, and a battle of wits ensues.
