You can't buy respectability by putting a wedding ring on it!

DramaRomance

Alfred Eaton, an ambitious young executive, climbs to the top of New York's financial world as his marriage crumbles. At the brink of attaining his career goals, he is forced to choose between business success, married to the beautiful, but unfaithful Mary and starting over with his true love, the much younger Natalie.

VIBE

A glossy, yet hollow, portrait of New York's elite. It feels like a martini-fueled, late-night conversation about the emptiness of success and the fleeting nature of love, all wrapped in sharp suits and even sharper dialogue.
