The fictional character Armando Leon Morris is a swarthy, European shipping magnate (half-Greek and half-Irish), with flowing raven hair and a jaw like an African spear. He stars in a series of mucky books (Love Blooms in Lisbon) that are eagerly devoured by a fat, foul-mouthed sociopath named Ethena Ralph. One night, the author of the book series (who is also named Armando) is stranded after a serious car crash. Ethena rescues him, and brings him to her remote cabin to recover. She claims to be his biggest fan, and her obsession takes a dark turn when she discovers that he wants to quit writing the Love in Lisbon books and go to school for public relations. As the injured Armando devises plans for escape, Ethena grows increasingly controlling, even violent, as she forces the author to shape his writing to suit her twisted fantasies.I've never heard a more masculine name than Armando Leon Morris
Swinery. Starring James Caan as Armando and Cathy Bates as Ethena Ralph.
