Mr. Sloane

Bittersweet comedy-drama about a buttoned-down man in crisis. It's December 1969 and Jeremy Sloane is at the end of his rope - literally. He's been sacked from his accounting job, his wife Janet has left him to "find herself," and he is beginning to despair of his lot in life. Most evenings are now spent down the pub, drowning his sorrows with childhood mates Ross, Reggie and Beans. But with a potential job opportunity on the horizon and the phone number of free-spirited American girl, Robin, following a chance encounter in a hardware shop - could Mr Sloane's luck be about to change?
