NOVEMBER 9-18, 2023
Scarlett is a 36-year-old waitress who lives with her mother and has no boyfriend. She has an active fantasy life and dreams of being with her boss, Steve, but is also pursued by the awkward Alan.
Scarlett spends too much time watching old romantic movies, and in her working hours in a restaurant, she re-runs scenes from the films with her co-worker Gordon, the gay kitchen hand. As Scarlett drifts deeper into her reveries of Clark Gable, Cary Grant, Errol Flynn and Humphrey Bogart, she takes her place as the heroine in each of their movies.
But when real life romance arrives unexpectedly, will Scarlett be able to step out of the shadow of the Hollywood fairy-tale?
