Meet Sam Dodsworth: successful automobile magnate, self-made man, and living symbol of American achievement. But when Sam retires early and sets sail for Europe with his restless, socially ambitious wife Fran, he's about to discover that the real challenge of life isn't businessit's figuring out what truly matters when success no longer defines you. As Fran chases flirtations and fantasies through the salons and soirées of Europe, Sam is left to confront the growing distance between themand between who he was and who he wants to become.
