Das lange Elend (1989)
Ungeschickt und immer fehl am Platz ist Felix (Jeff Goldblum), ein glückloser amerikanischer Schauspieler, der sich mehr schlecht als recht auf den Theaterbühnen Londons durchschlägt. Sein trostloses Leben erlebt eine unerwartete Wendung, als er bei einem seiner häufigen Aufenthalte in der Klinik vor Ort eine hübsche Krankenschwester (Emma Thompson) kennenlernt. Zusammen lernen sie, was Liebe ist. Allerdings tut sich jemand vom Schlage Dexters auch dann noch schwer, sein eigenes Glück zu erkennen...
