SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
Maurice (O'Toole) and Ian (Phillips) are old friends, veteran
English actors who never hit the big time. Now in their seventies,
they continue to work (Maurice, for example, is playing a
corpse in a television drama) but their comfortable routines
and banter over breakfast in a favourite café are disrupted
by the arrival from the provinces of Ian's grand-niece, Jessie
(Whittaker). She quickly tries her great-uncle's patience.
But Maurice is taken with the girl, and proceeds to show her
the cultural sights of the capital. Maurice tries to teach
Jessie something about life, but in the process he is surprised
to discover how very little he actually knows now that his
own life is drawing to a close.
