If it's really love, it doesn't matter if you're in a Park Avenue penthouse of "some old efficiency coffin built for two..."

A fable of the old west, the sins of the father cast on the shoulders of the son.

It's the story of someone who played his role with dignity and with responsibility all his life, yet toward the end of it he has to wonder if it was all in vain...
