Synopsis
Talk about a bad day. Ben Butley, a
professor of English lit, is already the type of guy that the dank
British weather just makes more bitter and withdrawn. His wife tells
him she's going off to marry a mutual friend, then his lover hits
him with the news that he's off to join another man. Just how does
one keep his sense of humor amidst all of this?
