The Rachel Papers

“She's curious, he's nervous”

Charles Highway (Dexter Fletcher) is 19, headed for Oxford, and has decided it is time he got an older woman into bed. He builds the campaign like a term paper, with a computer program and advice from his eccentric relatives, and aims it at Rachel Noyce (Ione Skye), an American in her twenties with a boyfriend already. Damian Harris sets Charles's careful plans against a girl who is not following them, and the two of them keep circling each other.
