I actually know at least a half dozen women like this, who are absolutely certain their best days came and went 20 years or more ago.
And the alcoholism, annoying provincial parents in denial, inner fantasy life, and stunted emotional growth are all way too familiar. It's sadly funny that her writing career feeds this arrested development in that she writes to an audience of emotionally immature teen girls.
Too bad all the similarly afflicted women I've known could find a job that so matches their lack of emotional development as the lead in this movie has found. She uses her good looks to "get over" and to get away with more than anyone should ever be allowed simply because she's beautiful.
The last conversation with Sandra (Matt's sister) demonstrated that for every bitch beauty queen, there's at least one wallflower wannabee.
If nothing else, this movie does a good job of showing that you really shouldn't judge a book by it's cover.
