Pete 'n' Tillie
"Honeymoon's over... it's time to get married."
Directed by Martin Ritt
A bittersweet romantic comedy-drama about marriage's fragility, where initial warmth and playfulness give way to infidelity, grief, and the struggle to sustain intimacy through tragedy.
A fun-loving bachelor woos and weds a secretary, but the bonds of this marriage aren't strong enough to stop his philandering from continuing.
