Running away from a troubled marriage, Kate Frazier hopes to find anonymity with a new home and a new job in Chicago. Despite friendly flirtation from co-workers and others, the shy and reserved Kate keeps her distance, avoiding questions about her sudden arrival and her recent past. When Kate meets Frank Logan, the two discover unexpected satisfaction in their mutual, shared silence. Haunted by the troubling choices he has made, Frank finds a kindred spirit in the younger Kate, and for a moment the two seem destined to redeem and remake each other. As the holidays and New Year pass against an urban landscape that seems both breathtakingly beautiful and starkly quiet, Kate and Frank’s friendship becomes one of necessity and survival for these two lost spirits. But neither lonely soul can escape the lives they have left behind. As events unfold and the painful truth slowly emerges, Frank is forced to face the man he really is, while Kate struggles to be the stronger woman she needs to be. The Merry Gentleman is a heady mix of suspense, gentle romance and quiet humour -- a riveting, uniquely entertaining tale of forgiveness and redemption that blends a hopeful spirit with a surprisingly dark heart.Special Features: Making of

It wasn't deep or clever but left a good feeling
There was no clever plot, no provocative thought, but the acting was good, and despite a few murders here and there it felt kind and hopeful. I liked it and don't have an explanation, why.A modern take on Beauty and the Beast

Strangely peaceful
WOnderful film, lovely music, well acted and a very intriguing and strangely satisfying approach to the film. When I see Micheal Keaton I do think of beetlejuice, but besides that fleeting thought I found the film peaceful, as thought it had a just ending and that it was more realistic than many movies out there. I dont want to give the plot away but maybe you will feel that things happened in a realistic manner.
