Getting It Right is a 1989 British-American comedy-drama film starring Jesse Birdsall, Jane Horrocks, and Helena Bonham Carter. [2] The tagline is: "Gavin is 31... and a virgin. One wild night and three women later, he's finally... Getting It Right."
The film concerns the late coming of age of protagonist Gavin Lamb (Birdsall), a painfully shy 31-year-old virgin still living at home with his parents and who works as a hairdresser in a West End salon. The socially awkward Gavin forges sudden romantic connections with three very different women: a sultry millionairess ( Redgrave), an idiosyncratic recluse ( Bonham Carter), and a single mother ( Horrocks) who is a junior hairdresser at his salon. [3] [4]
The film's theme song, also titled "Getting it Right", was sung by Dusty Springfield. [5] [6]
It made £88,787 in the UK. [7]
