<P><FONT face=Arial><EM>Enchanted April</EM> is the story of four very different
English women who escape chilly, wet London to a modest, Italian seaside castle
which they jointly rent for one fragrant April in 1922. Middle-aged, but
youthfully hopeful, <STRONG>Lottie</STRONG> has a calculating solicitor husband
(<STRONG>Mellersh</STRONG>) who bullies her. Somewhat younger,
<STRONG>Rose</STRONG>, is married to a playboy romance novelist
(<STRONG>Frederick</STRONG>) who suavely cheats on her. Young <STRONG>Lady
Caroline</STRONG> is a sexy and sophisticated widow who needs a little
respite from the social and sexual whirl. Old <STRONG>Mrs. Graves</STRONG>
is an autocratic, snooty widow full of childhood memories of meeting her
father's acquaintences. There are also <STRONG>Antony</STRONG>, the
pleasant English painter who owns the castle and <STRONG>Costanza</STRONG>, the
jolly Italian housekeeper -- old but wonderfully spry and saucy.</FONT></P>
