Description:
CHARLIE, COME HOME is an amazing and fascinating story about a man who, at first, seems quite ordinary.Charlie Pritchard, a small, timid and quiet type of guy is a bank clerk. He works in a branch of Cadwallader's Bank in a small seaside town in Wales. He boards at the home of the bank manager and his life is rather boring. The other employees of the bank fight constantly and the backstabbing he faces each day is depressing. He seems to have no life. After an affair with his boss's daughter, Ida, she leaves town. For him, there was no great loss since he did not love her, and she was actually the one who initiated the affair. He, like every other man in town, is infatuated with the gorgeous Delphine, who along with her brother runs the local cafe.Delphine does notice Charlie and begins to show a lot of interest in him, but the interest seems more to do with his working in a bank than in the man himself.
