Midweek Movie: Like Normal People

on BBC Two England

starring Shaun Cassidy, Linda Purl
Tonight's love story is a true one and at the same time a story of tremendous personal courage and dedication.
Roger Meyers is mentally handicapped. Not a lot, but enough to make him noticeably 'different' which is worrying for his parents but not a great problem - until he falls in love. In many States of America it is against the law for retarded people to marry and the true story of how Roger and Virginia fought against all the odds to win what most people regard as a natural, God-given right, makes a funny, moving and inspiring film.
Written and produced by JOANNA LEE Directed by HARVEY HART
