"A moving drama of the complexities of marriage and personal transformation. Two men meet in a visitors' room at a mental hospital where their wives are being treated for nervous breakdowns. As the women mutually discover a well-spring of strength and hope inside themselves, they set out to englihten their husbands and transform their marriages."
""Leroy Hamilton is seated in the visiting room of a state mental hospital where his wife is having treatment. Forty-eight years old, he is dressed in Ivy League clothing and is looking through a magazine. He is a veteran of the visiting room, as his wife has been hospitalized a number of times over the years. Mr. Frick, a sixty-year-old solid businessman, enters. His wife is having treatment for the first time. Frick engages Leroy in conversation and it becomes obvious that he needs to be put at ease regarding the whole situation of his wife's illness and resulting hospitalization. The men compare very different stories of how the illnesses began and how they have settled. Leroy tells Frick that the secret to handling the situation is not to feel sorry for yourself. Frick listens, yet the conversation begins to disintegrate as the men disagree about the relative merits of the state hospital verses a private one. Frick admires Leroy's pride in keeping his wife at the state-owned institution, however, he does so condescendingly. It turns out that the men have known each other before from a different context--Leroy (a descendant of Alexander Hamilton) is a carpenter that uses Frick's lumber yard. Frick becomes even more condescending to Leroy and the conversation completely disintegrates into the kind of talk that Leroy says is driving people crazy."--"
""Two men, one in his late-forties, the other twenty years older, meet in the waiting room of a New England state mental health facility only to discover that they have done business together in the past. Inside the facility, each of their wives recovers from a nervous breakdown. Leroy Hamilton, a descendent of founding father, Alexander Hamilton, has spent his life as a highly skilled carpenter. His wife, Patricia, the daughter of Swedish immigrants and herself the mother of seven children, cannot reconcile what she considers to be Hamilton's deliberate under-achievement with her own family's grasping attempts at assimilation and affluence. Purposefully foregoing her anti-depression medication for a number of weeks, Patricia has begun to display a new clarity of thought that promises to shatter irrevocably the status quo of her life with Hamilton. The older, more affluent couple, share an equally tense marriage despite their prosperity. Karen Frick, though, has gone farther down the path of no-recovery than even the more frequently hospitalized Patricia. As roommates, Karen and Patricia have been sharing stories about their husbands--and the final meeting between them all, demonstrates the price and rewards of even strained marriages."--"
