Just Write1997
In this 1997 comedy, Harold (Jeremy Piven: "Entourage," OLD SCHOOL, THE GOODS, SMOKIN' ACES) is a tour bus driver. While visiting a good friend in a cafe, Harold spots his favorite actress, Amanda Clark (Sherilyn Fenn: "Twin Peaks," WILD AT HEART, BOXING HELENA). When Harold sees Amanda sitting alone, he decides to introduce himself. Harold doesn't correct Amanda when she mistakenly assumes he is a writer. When she asks who his agent is, Harold innocently throws out the name of super-agent Arthur Blake. Amanda is impressed and charmed, and to Harold's amazement she proposes a date to discuss her next movie with him. He proposes a script rewrite and convinces Arthur Blake to represent him. With a rewrite looming, an actress swooning and his whole world rocking, Harold must "just write."
