Dave Kulovic (Martin Donovan) is a plumber who has trouble meeting women because of his less-than-glamorous profession. Thanks to a case of mistaken identity, Dave discovers that the road to romance is much smoother when he pretends to be a struggling film director and soon he's staging phony casting calls and swiping the screenplay of a neighbor (Mary-Louise Parker), a writer whose script happens to be quite good. Kevin Carroll and Rebecca Gayheart costar in this comic indie hit from writer/director John C. Walsh ("Ed's Next Move").
