Looking for a movie (drama) from 1950s, 1960s - that might have come out around the time that Splendor in the Grass came out (1961) - about a woman that leaves her family and/or her life and goes to live alone (I think in a foreign land) and lives a lonely life (under a new name, I think) - it might be in black and white - just in case that rings a bell for anyone (I know it’s not many details)…
