    This is an ensemble piece; the second female lead is the female lead's best friend. The two women have two distinct types of "crazy" personalities, and both are quite extreme. (The female lead is a romantic, love-struck woman with a sharp mind; her best friend is a career-driven, straightforward woman.) The second female lead is an artist's assistant who is mistaken for a lesbian by her boss and assigned to work with a male actor. Then this actor starts relentlessly pursuing her—the allure of a younger, predatory man is irresistible!
