Plot

A perfect typical LA couple find their happily-ever-after life broken when the husband confronts his long-repressed attraction for other men.

Sinekatalog’s take

A seemingly ideal husband in Los Angeles confronts feelings he has long buried for men, upending his marriage. A frank and compassionate drama for its time, it is gentle rather than sensational and still touching for its empathy toward everyone involved.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
