What happens

Lorna Doone is a 1934 British historical drama film directed by Basil Dean and starring Victoria Hopper, John Loder and Margaret Lockwood. It is based on the 1869 novel Lorna Doone by R. D. Blackmore. This was the third screen version of the novel, and the first with sound; a further cinema adaptation followed in 1951. It was shot partly on location in Somerset. The film's sets were designed by the art director Edward Carrick. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
