Description
A Bit of Marriage is a dark and funny exploration of how wedlock can end in gridlock. Laura's going to leave her husband. She's going to do it today. All she needs to do now is to find a reason why. Laura Denver-Barrette has been happily married to her rich, handsome, considerate husband, David, for 15 years. She can't help thinking that there must be more to life than this. When they wake up this morning and David tenderly attempts to make love to her, that's when she decides she just can't take any more. She has become allergic to him - the way he eats, sleeps, talks and breathes are all driving her mad. None of it is the way it would be if it were perfect. All marriages have their ups and downs and this one, today, is no different from all the rest. Her husband has an affair with Laura's best friend and gets the cleaner pregnant. She seduces his business partner while her mother dies in the second-best guest bedroom. All the while she struggles to find a good reason to go. Does Laura leave him? Or does David learn to exist in a way she does not find offensive so their marriage can survive another day?
