Description
In the fall of 1957 in Connecticut, Cathy Whitaker (Julianne Moore) is returning home from a day of errands. Her husband, Frank (Dennis Quaid), is expected home for a dinner engagement. There's only one problem, no one has heard from Frank all afternoon. What begins as a curious snapshot of 1950's American values is soon transformed into tangle of competing conflicts, igniting Cathy's friendships with her formidable gardener, Raymond (Dennis Haysbert), her plucky best friend and her maid. As secrets are revealed, Cathy is faced with choices that spur hatred and gossip within the community...
Plot Synopsis
Cathy is the perfect 50s housewife with healthy children, a successful husband and a great social life. One night she catches her husband having sex with another man and her world suddenly collapses. This leads her into a relationship with her black American gardener - a socially unacceptable friendship at the time.
