A semi-fictional account of how writer F. Scott Fitzgerald met his wife while he was in the army and stationed in Alabama in 1919.
F. Scott (Richard Chamberlain) and Zelda Fitzgerald (Blythe Danner) return from Europe emotionally and financially depleted. Despite being 30, Zelda develops a fixation on becoming a ballerina, while Scott, bereft of ideas, drinks and carouses.

As the story progresses, Scott hopes the book will somehow prove to be the thing that resuscitates his ailing marriage.
