Starman

Hugh Packard is a high-flying securities trader who flies too high, quits his position, has an affair--no, two--drives his Porsche to Fort Lauderdale, buys a Cigarette boat, does drugs, and crashes when his girlfriend dumps him. Mired in depression, he wants to come back to Anne, his deeply hurt wife. There, the real story begins. With the epidemic of extra-marital affairs and divorces, the question arises: can a marriage survive a devastating affair? As Anne contemplates whether to take Hugh back, and as they together explore what it would take to restore trust and love, Anne's friend Marilyn is going through a brutal divorce. A jolting reminder of a past horror snaps Hugh to attention and sets him on the path to seek professional help for his manic-depressive disease. This shooting star flames out, enters a black hole, and struggles to regain orbit. Anne is deeply hurt, angry, and doubtful. Their children suffer. What would it take for Anne and Hugh be a couple again?
