From Google images Joan and Joe remain complements after nearly 40 years of marriage. Where Joe is casual, Joan is elegant. Where Joe is vain, Joan is self-effacing. And where Joe enjoys his very public role as the great American novelist, Joan pours her considerable intellect, grace, charm and diplomacy into the private role of a great man's wife. As Joe is about to be awarded the Nobel Prize for his acclaimed and prolific body of work, Joan starts to think about the shared compromises, secrets and betrayals.- The Worldwide Web Initial release: 17 August 2018 (USA) Director: Björn Runge Based on: The Wife  by Meg Wolitzer Story by: Meg Wolitzer Screenplay by: Jane Anderson Behind any great man, there's always a greater woman - and you're about to meet her.
