Coattails (0018)

He was a gifted man who found fame and fortune which he was not looking. All she wanted was fortune when they met. While she only saw dollar signs, he was blinded by love and they were married. Eventually, the constant public attention ate at him and he grasped to feel anything besides emptiness. He reached out to her, but found that her heart was not there for him so he found his escape down the barrel of a gun. In public she cried her empty tears, but had found her fortune and happiness on the coattails of a dead man.
