A love story that became a marriage that became a love story.
The romance in David and Eva's 47-year marriage has faded like the paint on their house. David (Melvyn Douglas) want to sell and move into a retirement home. Eva (Lil Kedrova) will hear none of it. If time heals all wounds, it must work fast because the memory-haunted Eva hasn't much time.
Tell Me a Riddle is a tender story of rediscovering love - and the extraordinary teaming of three Academy Award winners: Douglas, Kedrova and Lee Grant in a memorable debut as director. Maybe a trip to San Francisco will bring change. Perhaps the couple's granddaughter (Brooke Adams) can help them rekindle a spirit of openness and hope. In this film of Tillie Olsen's award-winning novella, it's all in the graceful, thoughtful telling.
