Synopsis

What if a boy's coming of age included a relationship with a woman in her 30s, a free spirit who paints and who numbers the President of the United States among her lovers?

In Washington, D.C., in the fall of 1963, junior-high student Adam Stafford becomes obsessed with his new neighbor, Catherine Caswell.

He steams open her mail, reads her diary, peers into her windows, and hides in her closet.

CIA agents notice him; he sees them meet with her and with an anti-Castro Cuban.

She hires Adam to work in her garden, and they become friends of sorts.

Is theirs an American affair?

Furthermore, I felt that the soundtrack did not effectively evoke the time period of the early 1960s. The music did not transport me to that specific era or create a sense of nostalgia for the historical setting of Washington, D.C. in the fall of 1963. Instead, the soundtrack felt generic and uninspired, missing an opportunity to enhance the film's atmosphere and authenticity.
