All That Heaven Allows

All That Heaven Allows is a 1955 drama and May-September romance in which a well-to-do widow (Jane Wyman), living in a small town, decides to marry a handsome younger man (Rock Hudson) who owns a small landscaping business. The two lead very different lives: after a period of mourning, she is gradually re-entering a social life amongst her mostly dull country-club peers, with her only apparent enjoyment in life coming from weekend visits from her college-age children; he "hears a different drummer" and enjoys a life focused on nature and deliberately undistracted by what he considers unimportant, particularly the gossipy opinions of others.
