In 1961 London, Jenny Mellor is a 16-year-old schoolgirl preparing for Oxford University when she meets a charming older man driving a Bristol 405, David Goldman, who pursues her romantically. He takes her to concerts, clubs and fine restaurants, easily charming and manipulating her parents into approving of the relationship. Later, Jenny discovers that David is a con man who makes money through a variety of shady practices. She is initially shocked but silences her misgivings in the face of David's charm. Jenny's parents invite Graham, a boy Jenny knows from Youth Orchestra, to Jenny's birthday party but David arrives and Graham goes home. A few days later, David takes Jenny to Paris as a birthday gift, where she loses her virginity to him. When David proposes marriage, Jenny accepts and leaves school. However, she later discovers David is already married. When she reveals her discovery to David, he drops out of sight. Jenny despairs, feeling she has thrown her life away but, with the help of her favourite teacher, resumes her studies and is accepted at Oxford the following year.
In the post-war, pre-Beatles London suburbs, a bright schoolgirl is torn between studying for a place at Oxford and the rather more exciting alternative offered to her by a charismatic older man. Written by Nick Hornby, the writer behind High Fidelity and About A Boy:

If I learned you weren't the loving kind, I would have saved some peace of mind. My friends told me you would break my heart, And never last, we would surely part. There's no smoke without fire, Baby, baby you're a liar. People talk in this little town, Rumours keep spreading all around. And now word has it you've been foolin' me, I'm so blind that I cannot see. My friends told me never to believe in you, You never loved me you were never true. There's no smoke without fire, Baby, baby you're a liar. No there's no s...
