Movie #855 "Pipe Dream" is a nice romantic comedy which is stolen by Mary Louise Parker --- the best part of the film. She plays the aspiring screenwriter who has a dream to have one of her films made ---- enter a plumber (thus the title) who feels belitted by everyone so he decides he would make up that he is a movie director ------ie. both dreams come true and they find themselves working on a film together. I really never warmed up to the male lead (not sure why), but Mary Louise is magnificent. I have seen her on stage, on t.v. and in other movies, but this is one of her best pieces of work. Loved the film, due to her. I also like all the ins and outs of filmmaking being covered here, too. More so than you might like, but there's enough here so that lots of people who like romantic comedies would enjoy this.
