Scent of a Woman

College student Charlie Simms learns - rather quickly - how much he has yet to see and how much life he has yet to experience when he takes a job watching over a blind army veteran.

Lt Col Frank Slad is a bombastic retired army officer who has lost his sight but has not lost his passion for living. Charlie Simms is a young college student who takes a job watching over the blind iconoclast. He learns rather quickly, however, how much he has yet to see and how much life he has yet to experience.
