Mcteague

Newly-married, McTeague and Trina Sieppe appear to have a bright future, especially in light of Trina's $5,000 lottery win. But when McTeague is barred from practicing dentistry, and Trina's money-hoarding becomes pathological, the couple descends into poverty with stunning rapidity and far-reaching consequences.

Frank Norris's 1899 novel explores the impact of jealousy and greed on an otherwise typical relationship. McTeague has been adapted twice for film, including the 1924 film Greed, directed by acclaimed auteur Erich von Stroheim.
