Based on the classic Henry James novel, “Washington Square” is the story of awkward young heiress Catherine Sloper (JENNIFER JASON LEIGH), who becomes caught in the emotional struggle between her strict and over-protective father (ALBERT FINNEY), and an improbable suitor, the charming, handsome and penniless Morris Townsend (BEN CHAPLIN). When Catherine falls in love with Morris, she is forced to make a fateful choice that will affect her happiness-and the rest of her life.
