Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Australian Mark McManus thinks that his relationship with girlfriend Jeannie Drynan is fairly solid. Indeed it is-until mutual friend David Turnbull spills the beans to McManus' wife Eileen Chapman. The resulting emotional turmoil makes McManus realize that he's more in love with Drynan than ever. As for Turnbull, he gets beaten up for his troubles. Director Tim Burstall cowrote the verbose screenplay of 2000 Weeks with the film's producer, Patrick Ryan.
