My brilliant career [videorecording] / Margaret Fink Films ; screenplay, Eleanor Witcombe ; producer, Margaret Fink ; director, Gill Armstrong.

Summary:

"Sybylla Melvyn struggles with the conflicts that we all have between ambition, family, love, and guilt in a most remarkable manner. Sybylla grows to understand that life is a series of trade-offs, and that no one can have it all, and that no one can please everyone. Simple yet universal themes told with charm, wit, and a vulnerability that allows us to get right inside of her character and to understand her."--Internet Movie Database.
