I always think of MANNEQUIN when I recall this possibly trashy bargain bin movie. I think it "came off the back of it."
Man: loser. Woman: less of a loser. Builds the confidence of loser. They get together...possibly.
Neither played by stars you can name. Never in anything big again or before. But the lady, blonde and thin and quirky, may have been. She looks like Rosanna Arquette and Phoebe from FRIENDS merged. THERE MAY HAVE BEEN SOMETHING MAGICAL ABOUT HER. Maybe an angel? No. It's not SPLASH. if you are thinking in that level of success you've missed the plot. This film was famous for five seconds.
The guy looks like a chunkier version of the straight act in the tv show PERFECT STRANGERS. Mark Linn-Baker. But uglier. Also like Robert Wuhl. He has horrible long curling hair, light brown and a constant sad, resigned face on him. That smile that is really a frown.
It's an odd coupling because the woman is a bit more good looking. It probably all takes place in New York. I cannot recall a single scene from the film. I may have not even seen the film!
But the idea that this average looking, chunky guy could get an ounce of love in his awful life, obsesses me.
I must exorcise this engram. My own personal view of the spacetime continuum depends on it.
