Plot: Carolina Mirabeau was raised 'free-spirited' with two sisters by eccentric, domineering grandma Millicent in the country. Carolina's city neighbor, talented and witty Jewish author Albert Morris, is her best friend, confidant and the wacky family's favorite guest. Yet she begins dating Heath Pierson, an 'all too perfect' upper class brilliant Britton, whom she met in the TV studio where she's fired as dating show candidates-screener. But the past and some truths catch up with all of them.
Alternative Plot: A novelist (Alessandro Nivola) and a well-to-do man vie for the affections of a young woman (Julia Stiles) who has a meddling grandmother (Shirley MacLaine).
