Synopsis
This inventive romantic comedy with a novel twist is by the author of Nurse Jane Goes to Hawaii and Bingo.
Professor Moira Fitzsimmons is lecturing about a novel by her colleague Martin Edwards.
Her hilarious version of the love affair that inspired the novel constitutes the bulk of this sophisticated light comedy.
Just as the autobiographical characters in the novel reach a loving resolution, it is revealed that Moira and Martin are happily married, and that the preceding lecture actually outlines the novelist latest book.
