Elyot Chase (Toby Stephens) and Amanda Prynne (Anna Chancellor) are glamorous, rich and reckless divorcees. Five years later, whilst on their second honeymoons with their brand new spouses, their passionate love for one another is unexpectedly rekindled, when they take adjoining suites at a French hotel. They both fling themselves headlong once more, into a new and exciting whirlwind of lust/love, without any thought for their partners present or their past issues.

1930年,英国剧作家、作曲家诺埃尔·科沃德(Noel Coward)在他的亚洲之行中途径上海,不慎患上流感,入住和平饭店(当时的华懋饭店)休养。在短短的四天时间里,他在这家名流荟聚的酒店的314号房间完成了喜剧《私人生活》(Private Lives)初稿。该剧同年即在伦敦凤凰剧院上演,获得了巨大反响。
《私人生活》讲述的是一对离婚夫妇各自携新侣度蜜月,不期入住了同一家酒店的相邻房间,在剑拔弩张的紧张关系中发现仍对彼此心存感情。或许是因为剧作家本人在写作时正住在酒店里,《私人生活》的故事也是在一家酒店展开的。
