Loving (1970) on Netflix

Plot summary

Brooks Wilson has a wife, Selma, two young daughters, Lizzie and Hannah, and a girlfriend, Grace, who wants him to leave Selma for her. He earns his living as a commercial artist. He used to try to please everyone, his agent Edward among them, and now the need to please only aggravates him. At work meetings he drinks, which costs him the goodwill of people who could help his career. Selma senses that something is wrong, but she knows only about his doubts at work and not about the rest. The account that would make his name belongs to Lepridon, a truck manufacturer, and Brooks is unsure he wants it at all; a career spent drawing trucks does not appeal to him.
