Ballroom Something MoreBallroom
Bea has been widowed for a year. Her friend angie insists she should go out and takes her to the Stardust. Bea had been expecting a disco - but the Stardust is a ballroom. She meets mailman al and they get along well together - but Bea refuses to go back home with him. Love grows between the two and despite her children and sister-in-law trying to prevent it she carries on seeing al. One night he tells that he is married - he does not love his wife - but he will never leave her. and it is this night that her family have all gathered to try to get Bea to stop seeing al and going to the ballroom. Bea throws them out. She much prefers her new life - and even sharing al is better than nothing
