Hollywood actress Gloria Grahame (Annette Bening) finds romance and happiness with a younger man (Jamie Bell), but her life changes forever when she is diagnosed with breast cancer.
Based on Peter Turner's memoir, the film follows the playful but passionate relationship between Turner and the eccentricfemme fatale Gloria Grahame (Bening) in 1978 Liverpool. What starts as a vibrant affair grows into a deeper relationship, as Gloria turns to Turner for comfort.
"Bening is outstanding as a woman who fears that her fame and beauty are slipping away, and Bell ("Billy Elliot") brings to his character a heartbreaking vulnerability." Calvin Wilson, St. Louis Post-Dispatch
