Leon (Mark Frandel) suffers an identity crisis when he finds out he
is not the Jewish son of a curtain net king, but rather the
offspring of a Yorkshire pig farmer (Brian Glover). A more welcome
complication develops as he divides his romantic attentions between
two women - the girl-next-door played by Gina Bellman or the
gorgeous Madeleine (Maryam D'Abo). A surprise commercial success,
this British comedy was filmed on a profit sharing basis, with the
crew working for nothing during the film's production, but
receiving a percentage of any box office returns after it was
released.
