When Brendan Met Trudy

Romantic comedy drama by Roddy Doyle. Brendan, a teacher and movie fan, meets Trudy, who he thinks is also a teacher, but turns out to be a thief.

Romantic comedy drama written by Roddy Doyle. Brendan is a teacher, baritone and movie fan, whose engagement with real life is somewhat precarious. When he meets Trudy, a girl from the west of Ireland, he thinks she is also a teacher. In reality she is a thief, and as Brendan introduces Trudy to the glories of pre-Star Wars cinema, so she introduces him to the joys of crime and sex.
