The Ploughman's Lunch (1983)

 Original screenplay by Novalist Ian McEwan. Set against the backdrop of the Falklands War, 36 year old writer Johnathan Pryce sets his sights on 27 year old Charlie Dore, only to end up in a relationship with her 56 year old mother Rosemary Harris. Very McEwan, but the story is more novelia then motion picture. Dry, not much in the way of visuals. I did enjoy Tim Currey as Price's best friend. **
