The Leading Man (1996)
Jon plays "Robin Grange"
Successful playwright Felix Webb has a new play, 'The Hit Man',
in rehearsal. Directed by his old friend Humphrey, it is already being
hailed as a masterpiece; but Felix can't enjoy his success. He has fallen
passionately in love with Hilary, a beautiful, fiesty young actress, and
is preparing to desert his perfect family, his wife Elena and three lively
children.
His intolerable situation is further complicated when Humphrey casts Hilary
as one of the leads in 'The Hit Man'.
Enter Robin Grange, a charismatic young Hollywood actor making his London
theatre debut. Robin is attractive, charming and dangerous, and soon inveigles
his way into everyone's life. He ingratiates himself with the cast and,
quickly grasping Felix's dilemma, sets about weaving his web of mischief.
He suggests that if he were to seduce Elena, she would be distracted from
Felix's affair, regain her self respect, and perhaps even willingly part
from the unfaithful husband to whom she clings.
Initially Felix is outraged but as the tension mounts with Hilary, reluctant
to continue as the second woman in his life, he succumbs. Watching in horror
as Elena responds to Robin's perfectly plotted seduction, and tormented
with suspicions that Hilary has also fallen under Robin's spell, Felix
spirals towards a kind of madness. Desperate to regain control of his life,
he indulges in a grand theatrical gesture, but fate intervenes, and both
Felix and Robin learn that real life doesn't always follow the script.

No Looking Back (1997)

three years together, her live-in boyfriend, Michael, is eager to tie the
knot. Their life together is comfortable and Michael loves her. But Claudia
has dreams of life beyond her home town and is afraid that if she marries
now, she'll never realize them.
Claudia's sister Kelly lives with her mother and struggles with good humor
to care for her fatherless baby. Their mother hasn't left the house since
Claudia's dad walked out on the family six months ago. No one understands
why Claudia sympathizes with her renegade father, like him, she has a wild,
restless streak and longs for more. But she can't quite put her finger
on what it is she wants. So when her old flame, Charlie, returns from out
west, she begins to wonder... maybe he's the answer. Their past romance
was a passionate one: He's the one that got away. But his California dreams
have gone bust and he's back pumping gas just like he did in high school.
At first Claudia resists Charlie, but he's got the lure of that first love
you never quite get over and before long she finds herself back in his
arms and agreeing to run off with him.
Without being told, Michael knows what's happened and forces the inevitable
confrontation. But Claudia's confusion gives way to clarity: she just doesn't
love Michael the way he wants and she's not sure Charlie is the answer
either. Days later, Claudia says good bye - to both Michael and Charlie.
She tosses her suitcase into the trunk of the '82 Firebird and takes off,
over the bridge, in search of a life she can call her own.
