The opportunity is for this generation of black Americans to remake the society.

Even though the charge of deceit against him was true, Coram contended, the Journal had no right to fire him. He and other Journal reporters had often used such tactics, and the paper had never complained. N.L.R.B. Trial Examiner James F. Foley disagreed.

But Dean Ahmed, directing, manages to frame an unexpected climax to end the play on a note of crotchety...
...ample opportunity to fall in love with Other Women, as he does. His wife Catherine (Annie Girardoux) knows more than he thinks, but she loves him anyway. Robert finally Falls Hard for an American swinger called Candice (who is played by an actress called Candice Bergen). Sick of deceit, he tells Catherine everything and goes off to live with Candice. Meanwhile Catherine sets out on a new life of her own. But of course, in the style of A Man and a Woman, he realizes that he has Fallen Hard already--ten years ago, in fact--and returns to Candice...
