SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
Alternately tragic and comic, an exploration of the complexities
of love in both its brightest and darkest corners.
Adapted from John Irving's best-selling novel A Widow for
One Year, the film is set in the privileged beach community
of East Hampton, New York and chronicles one pivotal summer
in the lives of famous children's book author Ted Cole (Jeff
Bridges) and his beautiful wife Marion (Kim Basinger). Their
once-great marriage has been strained by tragedy. Her resulting
despondency and his subsequent infidelities have prevented
the couple from confronting a much-needed change in their
relationship.
Eddie O'Hare, the young man Ted hires to work as his summer
assistant, is the couple's unwitting yet willing pawn - and,
ultimately, the catalyst in the transformation of their lives.
