Wilt is a 1989 movie adaptation by LWT of the Tom Sharpe novel of the same name. The story follows the comic misadventures of the eponymous Henry Wilt as he is accused of the murder of his wife when she suddenly goes missing after a party at a friend's house where they have a very public argument.
The movie was directed by Michael Tuchner, with Andrew Marshall and David Renwick credited as screenplay writers. It was released in North America under the title The Misadventures of Mr. Wilt.
Henry Wilt is a community studies teacher at a poorly funded college where most of the pupils seem to be fairly apathetic to learning. Eva Wilt, his wife, is interested in the spiritual aspects of martial arts, Transcendental Meditation and similar pursuits. Eva's disdain for Henry's interest in reading adds to his general frustration at work, including being turned down for a promotion again, and leads him to occasionally fantasize about killing her. Her friends Sally and Hugh only exacerbate his alienation from her world by talking disparagingly about teaching as a profession and about his car.

Old Wilt: [answering machine, filtered] Happy ten/ten. Don't be shy, tell me why. When and where, I'll take it from there. Peace.

Genres: ,Withering away...
The colors fade into one.
The turning of the tides.
To pass from old to new.
Kneeling before the sun,
And seeking forgiveness
No shelter from these piercing rays
That blister my skin.
Scarring the flesh.
Begging for night- for an end.
To the suffering.
Covering the sun
In a darkened embrace
Unable to crawl of from these depths.
I have sank.
Intentions grow weak-
Ambitions begin to fade.
Searching for closure.
Within the reach of another existence.
One day this nightmare will end.
Leaving this life's perils behind.
