Plot summary

It's been 17 beautiful, prosperous years full of love and understanding for once-inseparable lovebirds Barbara and Oliver Rose, but now the love is gone, and the embittered couple seem determined to let all those years go down the drain. They desperately want out, except for one little problem: neither Oliver nor Barbara is willing to leave empty-handed. Under those circumstances, the couple is bound for an unnecessary, yet explosive and utterly catastrophic, head-to-head collision, in a no-holds-barred civil war between the sexes with their lavish mansion as the precious spoils of war. Without a doubt, theirs is a sad story, however, is any marriage destined to succeed? After all, Barbara and Oliver's divorce lawyer is deeply skeptical.—Nick Riganas
