The Princess and The Idiot

By Michael Wisner

An original screenplay. 

A modern love story. A young Berkeley English professor unexpectedly wins the Nobel prize in literature. In a failed marriage, he unceremoniously packs a duffel bag, gives everything to his wife and leaves. What unfolds is a modern love story between a misfit college student and high-society debutante torn apart by a family feud rivaling the Capulets and Montagues. A homage to “The Bard of Avon.”
