Becky Sharp defies her impoverished background to clamber up the class ladder. Her sentimental companion Amelia, however, longs only for caddish soldier, George. As the two heroines make their way through the tawdry glamour of Regency society, battles - military and domestic - are fought, fortunes made and lost.
