The Canadian television film Dulcima (1969) was based on the same novella, with the setting transferred to a small town in Ontario.[3]

Plot

The film stars Carol White as Dulcima, a carefree girl who begins working as housekeeper on a run-down Gloucestershire farm owned by the miserly Mr. Parker (John Mills). The farmer quickly becomes enamoured of the pretty and lively girl and invites her to live-in. They begin a sexual relationship, which becomes strained when he discovers her affections for a local gamekeeper.[4]

gollark: `3/0=Infinity` is kind of valid, given that I think algebraically x/0 can be any real number.
gollark: It is important to note that it is evil.
gollark: The `error` function. It is evil.
