Gloria Grahame was one of the great Hollywood movie stars of the 40s and 50s. By the late 70s her star had fallen and she was reduced to repertory in London and staying in ‘digs.’
There she meets Peter Turner a much younger actor, and they fall in love.
The film is based on Turner’s memoir of the affair and Annette Benning gives one of her great performances as the fragile yet feisty Graham and in Jamie Bell as Turner we see a star in the making.
