Upper-crust Londoners Robert and Jane Marryot (Clive Brook, Diana Wynyard) and their working-class counterparts, Alfred and Ellen Bridges, experience life's many triumphs and tragedies from the Boer War at the dawn of the 20th century up to 1930s. Queen Victoria's death and the sinking of the Titanic etch deep scars on both families, but the outbreak of World War I and its dramatic aftermath proves to be the greatest test of their courage and friendship.

Directed by Frank Lloyd (Mutiny on the Bounty). Screenplay by Reginald Berkeley, Sonya Levien (continuity). Based on Cavalcade, the 1931 play by Noël Coward.
