Synopsis

If you're rich, she's available! Kim Novak plays the title role and goes from bed to better in The Amorous Adventures of Moll Flanders, a bawdy comedy based on Daniel Defoe's classic novel. An all-star supporting cast - Angela Lansbury, George Sanders, Lilli Palmer, Leo McKern, Cecil Parker and others - joins the fun as Moll sets out on her (ahem) well-laid plan to make schemes come true in 18th-century London. She masquerades as a rich widow to land a wealthy nobleman (Richard Johnson), never dreaming that he's actually a highwayman posing to win the presumably rich Moll. What a perfect match!
