Tim was a gorgeous young man with a child’s mind. Mary Horton was a middle-aged spinster. Together they were outcasts in an unbending world – and then they meet and a forbidden love blossomed.

Mary Horton gazed at Tim. Had he lived two thousand years ago, he might have served as a model for the greatest Apollo of all time: instead he stood in front of her with total nonchalance. Tim’s presence, and the special love they share, would alter both of their lives forever.

Adapted from the novel by Colleen McCullogh, best-selling author of "Thorn Birds" and the Roman trilogy "First Man in Rome", "Grass Crown" and "Fortunes Favourites".

The film that launched Mels career. Bit slow for this day and age. But a nice film

Well made movie and done with class. It could have been so easy to have made this movie sleezy when 2 people had quite an age range between them. Expertly done, using a growing friendship and caring for one another, and then to have it blossom into adult love. Not one to be missed.

This is an oldie but definitely a goodie. Have always enjoyed watching. A very talented "young" Mel Gibson. No wonder he went on to become as famous as he is.
