What do you do when the color suddenly leaves your already beige life? When your girlfriend dumps you because you are dull and boring? When your boss offers a promotion to Art Director because you are a Team Player and work By The Book and, as there is no "I" in Team, there is also no "I" in Peter Rooker? When the only friend you have to hear your tale of woe is your sister?
If you are Peter Rooker (Marcus Thomas) you audition (awfully) for a part in the local Community Theater's production of Cyrano.
And, against all odds, land the lead!
As Peter embarks on his Quest for self-improvement he picks up a cast of quirky actors, directors, techies and fans who ignore his whining, push him to overcome his horrible acting skills, teach him about life, friendship, fun, betrayal, loyalty.....
They help him find the "I in Me".
The cast features an Indie-quality smorgasboard of wonderfully talented actors, including John Corbett, Amy Smart, Patty Duke, Sean Astin, Clare Higgins, Allan Cordliner; hilariously painful and heartwarming direction both on-screen and off; a powerful soundtrack....
A truly intellectual romantic comedy, refreshingly unique, heartwarmingly painful at times....this movie held my attention from the first scene to the ending credits. All 23 times I've watched it.
Definitely a "10" all the way around.
