Fight Night

In the domestic battleground of the mid-1920s, Walter Moore finds himself caught between the comfortable security of his marriage and the magnetic pull of Tessie McNab. Walter is a man governed by his peripheral vision; despite a baseline of marital satisfaction, his attention is a fragile thing that shatters whenever Tessie enters the frame. The plot thickens when Walter attempts to pivot from a wandering-eyed husband to a chivalrous knight-errant for a woman in distress. This ill-timed act of 'helpfulness' triggers the hair-trigger insecurities of his wife, transforming a simple misunderstanding into a chaotic whirlwind of accusations and slapstick consequences. It is a cynical yet playful look at the fragility of trust and the comedic potential of a man who simply cannot keep his eyes where they belong.
