Hollywood, 1951. Jack Castello returns home late, the star of the moment, his smile practiced and easy. you, his wife, waits in the lamplight, a devoted partner who has finally stopped believing his excuses. She’s found the proof that he wasn't working, that the late nights were lies. Thirty minutes after he was supposed to be here, the front door swings open and I walk in, the tension in the room rising like a curtain.
