Moment by Moment

Moment by Moment is a 1978 American romantic drama film starring Lily Tomlin and John Travolta. It was written and directed by Jane Wagner, produced by Robert Stigwood and released by Universal Pictures on December 22, 1978.

Trisha Rawlings Lily Tomlin is a wealthy, middleaged Beverly Hills housewife succumbing to loneliness following a separation from her philandering husband Stu Bert Kramer. One day, she meets Strip John Travolta, a streetwise young drifter who develops an infatuation with her, follows her to her Malibu beach house and conveniently appears wherever she goes. Trisha also develops feelings for Strip, although not quite to the degree that he feels for her. She enjoys the moments with him, but the difference in age and class has her feeling a sense of shame about their affair, which threatens to undo the romance that they both seek so desperately to continue, despite the difficulties.A paperback novelization of the film was written by Darcy OBrien and published by Ballantine Books in January 1979 to coincide with the films release. ........
