30 Is a Dangerous Age, Cynthia! (1968)

As the British autumn leaves start to fall, marking the approach of September 13th, musician and composer Rupert Street stands on the precipice of his thirtieth birthday. This date doesn't simply signify another rotation around the sun, but for Rupert, it is a critical juncture that will seal his fate as either a triumphant success or an unmistakable failure. With this looming deadline, he embarks on a dual quest. His first aim is to pen a stage musical that will resonate in the hearts of many. Having signed a pact with his agent Oscar, he is committed to assembling a crew and launching the show by his birthday. Simultaneously, Rupert dreams of a different kind of harmony—the melody of matrimony—even though he lacks a significant "Mrs. Street" in his life. His sights are set on Louise Hammond, a newcomer to his shared residence, who, despite having a boyfriend named Paul, captivates Rupert's heart. However, Louise's clear unwillingness to tie the knot poses a significant hurdle. As Rupert navigates the dual labyrinth of love and creativity, he grapples with the need to devote quality time to both pursuits. As the calendar pages flip closer to September 13th, a fascinating twist unfurls. The attainment of one goal appears increasingly tethered to the fulfillment of the other. Will Rupert manage to strike the perfect chord and orchestrate his dreams into reality, or will he face the music of failure? The clock is ticking.
