| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
Meet Genevieve (NIA VARDALOS). She loves romance. She loves
flowers. She loves Valentine’s Day. All of which is
fitting as the owner of “Roses for Romance,” a
quaint flower shop in the heart of a friendly Brooklyn, NY
neighborhood.
Her one problem is that she hates relationships. Having been
hurt numerous times in the past when it comes to matters of
the heart, Genevieve keeps herself happy by not letting anyone
in. Dating is a game to her, a game she is very good at. Genevieve
doesn’t get dumped and never gets hurt because she doesn’t
stick around long enough for things to get ugly.
Then she meets Greg (JOHN CORBETT). He’s good looking,
funny and humble. Having recently moved into town, Greg left
his old career as an attorney in Atlanta to start up a new
Tapas restaurant, “Get On Tapas.”
So how is this hot guy still single? It’s because,
unlike Genevieve, Greg has no game. He can never seem to understand
the rules of dating or how to romance a woman. After the two
meet, Genevieve explains her theory to Greg: Only date a person
for five dates and “when the romance is gone, move on.”
Greg decides to try this new way of dating. For him, it seems
like a good way to avoid his usual break up disasters. However,
neither one could have predicted just how high the sparks
would fly when the two of them are together. Both are falling
madly in love. So when the five dates are over, Genevieve’s
theory of romance is truly tested. Genevieve has to face her
past and admit she does want love, even at the risk of getting
hurt. Greg has to swallow his pride, throw away his inhibitions,
and go get her. What starts on one Valentine’s Day but
doesn’t blossom until that same day a year later is
a love story written in rose petals.
