F. Scott Fitzgerald 's autobiographical short story. The Last of the Belles, fictionalises his first meeting with his wife Zelda. This play within a play, made for American television, portrays Fitzgerald with his wife and child in 1928, when he was about to write the story-and then slips back to 1919, to Tarleton, Georgia, where a young officer, Andy McKenna , first sets eyes on Ailie Calhoun ...
The best and most faithful capturing of the Fitzgerald mood and quality.
