It highlights his struggles with his identity, his rise as a novelist, and his experiences during World War I, where he served as a Russian officer and was awarded the Cross of Saint George. Walpole's later success in writing, his friendship with Harold Cheevers, and his brief foray into Hollywood are also covered, culminating in his knighthood and untimely death in 1941.
