Gwen grows up with her romantic mother constantly telling her the story of her courtship and marriage to her father. Nick grows up with an alcoholic father who can't hold a job and whose family, as a result, is forced to move all the time. The two are shaped by this - Gwen a romantic and Nick withdrawn, unsure of himself - as they watch the hugely popular sixties sitcom, "One Big Happy Family." Years later, it is the star of that show, now a child actor gone bad with a history of detox and people always saying, "I thought she was dead," Francesca Lanfield, who connects the two of them, after years of near-misses and almost encounters. Gwen is hired to ghost-write Francesca's autobiography, while Nick, becoming her lover, is the architect who is to design a building on Francesca's property. When Gwen decides to crusade to save Francesca's building, she writes letters to the newspaper which catches Nick's attention - and wins his heart. —Gary Dickerson four word titlelatex glovesalcoholic fatherarchitectbrief encounter70 morePlot summaryAdd synopsisTaglinesIt took them twenty years to fall in love at first sight.GenresRomanceComedyMotion Picture Rating (MPAA)Rated PG-13 for sensuality, language and drug referencesParents guideAdd content advisory
