A middle aged writer of pornographic novels Scott (Charles Bronson) meets and falls in love with a sixteen year old school girl (Susan George) whilst living in London.
When Scott is refused a permanent visa to remain in Britain, the couple get married and move to America where by state law Lola must go to school. Tensions arise when Lola wants to engage in sixteen-year-old pastimes, while Scott struggles to complete his novels in order to earn a living.
LOLA: "I got into a fight with my teacher. She said the British burned Washington."
SCOTT: "They did. In the War of 1812."
LOLA: "No we didn't!!! We burned Joan of Arc!"
The title song and two other original numbers are composed and performed by Jim Dale.
