影片讲述一个“富二代”Conrad Valmont的故事，他一直生活在父母在曼哈顿区的豪宅里，终日浑浑噩噩，生活没有目标，但是在一周的时间内他的生活却发生了翻天覆地的变化，房子被收回、继承权被剥夺，但是如落水狗一般的Conrad Valmont却开始了新的生活，也找到了自己的真爱。

Set against the backdrop of 18th century England, a massive pox outbreak, and Jacobite uprising – this is a timely and darkly satirical story of Sir Chauncey Savage and Lady Savage and their blind pursuit of a better life. It is not without a tinge of irony that their family name is the Savages, for this is a Savage House indeed. Filled with duels, decadence, and bloodshed, this is a madcap play on class and power.
