Ces trois femmes vivent sous la terrible coupe du chef de famille, avaricieux maladif. Dans le voisinage, les beaux partis se disputent l’hypothétique main d’Eugénie dans l’espoir d’épouser la fortune. Mais un évènement imprévu va venir bouleverser cet ordonnancement : le cousin d’Eugénie, un dandy parisien, fils du frère du père Grandet, débarque un soir, porteur d’une missive pour son oncle.

Story
ne petite ville assoupie dans ses habitudes, un microcosme de l’ancienne France, une vieille fille riche, Marie-Victoire Cormon, qui hésite entre deux prétendants, le chevalier de Valois et l’ex-citoyen banquier du Bousquier. Le chevalier est vieux, coquet, sans un sou, fidèle aux bourbons. Du Bousquier est arriviste, libéral, au bord de la ruine mais encore à peu près présentable. Grave conflit, lutte de clans : la monarchie contre la révolution, l’ancien temps et sa noblesse contre la richesse acquise dans la tourmente révolutionnaire.
