As a young man, Tom yearns for the comely daughter (Susannah York) of a neighboring squire, but his amorous adventures (including an extended food orgy that becomes the film's funniest scene) lead him to London and to a duel with a jealous husband.
The past he's reliving is the New York of 1944, where he and his buddies conspired to get him set up with the best-looking girl in the boroughs, Sue Wellington.

 Guantanamo: "Honor Bound to Defend Freedom" - The Loves of Shakespeare's Women - New York Magazine Theater Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Inspired, the actress and sometime writer says, by John Gielgud’s sovereign Ages of Man, it is a short but overlong compilation of speeches by women from Shakespeare’s plays; though some of these speeches are compounded from several, quite a few have little to do with love, and many feel uncomfortably stranded out of context.
York was one of the loveliest screen and stage presences of the sixties and seventies—a strawberry-and-Devonshire-cream beauty to take your breath away.
It is not that she does not intersperse recitation with amiable personal recollections, or that the uncredited discreet period music is unsuitable, but some needed magic remains offstage.
