Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Graham Green (a juvenile player, not the writer nor the Native American actor of almost the same name) is the star of the British-made Looks and Smiles. A born square peg in a round hole, Green wants desperately to fit into the world. His efforts fail, and the world has another angry young man on his hands. His venom is contagious; the viewer will also be incensed that those around Green can't see the value in him. Looks and Smiles is absolutely not to be judged by its happy-happy-joy-joy title.
