Jerome "Corcky" Corchorn is a sucessful businessman and low level politician in his home town, Union City, New York. On the outside he has everything going for him. But over the course of one week-end must confront himself and his life. He has a divorce behind him, and an emotionally troubled step-daughter on the verge of destroying herself, and ruining his political career. He must come to terms with his father's murder years earlier, and his growing dependance on alcohol. His love life as well as his business is falling apart, but through it all, Corcky feels that he must project the image of the sucessful business man. | ||
