The Beguiled

Drama. When a wounded soldier is found by some young girls, their mistress allows him to stay until he has fully recovered. But the longer he remains, the longer he seems to exert a pull over them.

In the American Civil War, when a wounded Union soldier is found by the young girls of an isolated seminary in Virginia, their mistress allows him to stay until his wounds are fully recovered before handing him over to Confederate soldiers. But the longer he remains, the longer he seems to exert a pull over the girls and their mistresses.
