lifestyle that might eventually catch up with him,
and the commitment of marriage to a New York
woman, Kate. It brings you in the tumultuous area of
immigration and marriage, with marriage occurring
not for love or mutual care, but for a green-card.
You will find yourself wondering whether Morie is
an actor, a diplomat, or a politician as he takes you
along on his journey - trading Paris for New York.
