Boy Meets Girl (1967)

Annette and Bruce, each paralysed from the waist down and confined to a wheelchair, fall in love.

Lucinda has to live with, and try to bear, her aged Aunt Emerald. But Emerald's tastes for salmon and costly drinks are hard to sustain on Lucinda's pittance from Mr Swyvoski's antique shop; so they have to take lodgers. Mr Trace asks only to be left in peaceful enjoyment of his role as a failure, but bold Irishman and drunk virtuoso Phelim O'Donnell is a very different kettle of poteen, and his arrival marks the beginning of a fuller life (particularly in the alcoholic sense) for the bewildered Lucinda.
