Synopsis

Julie and Jeremy are both young and in love with each other, but there the similarity ends. He is ambitious and seeks fame as a playwright, whilst she simply wants a home with him, and a child. Seeing her as a block to achieving his goals, he becomes very single-minded and rides roughshod over her in pursuit of his dreams. In doing this he loses their love, but what has he gained? They were caught in the magic spell of love. Would worldly ambition shatter their young dreams?
