The Time of Our Lives
A sweeping story of the passions and fashions of the 1950s and 1960s, charting the lives of two very different families. It is 1953. At the Coronation party at the Palace Hotel, two lives are about to change forever. Claudia — 16, beautiful, fragile, and an outsider in this small seaside town — finds herself talking to Michael, also a newcomer, who is struggling with a rocky marriage. Their instant, irresistible attraction to one another will have consequences which stretch far into the future. Against the ever-changing backdrop of events ranging from grey post-war austerity to technicolor rock and roll, from Suez to the summer of love, from Bill Haley to The Beatles, from the buttoned-up glamour of the 1950s to the rebellious freedom of the 1960s, The Time of Our Lives is an intensely passionate love story and a captivating chronicle of the times.
