Mariette Hartley, Jerry Sroka
9 June 2024
A very enjoyable almost completely comic (that turns dramatic) film about an aging Mariette Hartley who decides to try computer dating and after a few duds meets Jerry Sroka (also an actor). Apparently it's loosely based on their own lives and they play themselves, as do most of the characters in the film.

Hartley plays an actress still plugging along in Hollywood but pretty must at the end of her career, while Sroka plays a small-part actor who's never really made it, gets a job here and there. They are totally mismatched and totally destined for one another (and married in real life).

A few others show up as themselves. Morgan Fairchild and Tess Harper show up for an audition. Bernie Kopell is a friend as are Don Scardino (who directs the film) and Lloyd Bremseth (who now owns a bird store). The story takes a sharp turns after Hartley experiences a medical emergency.

Written by Hartley and Sroka. Very enjoyable.
