Penelope
Synopsis
One suitor, Edward Vanderman, flees before they can get him to sign. He tries to tell the world of the horror he has witnessed, but everyone thinks he's crazy. Everyone except Mr Lemon, a reporter who believes in the curse and has been trying to get a photo for many years.
With the impetus he needs to revisit the story, Lemon decides to send a dummy suitor - a known blue blood - to get pictures. Enter Max Campion - a handsome young blue blood in desperate need of money. What Lemon and Edward don't count on is Max falling for Penelope and the power of true love to set fantastic things in motion.
