I Want Someone to Eat Cheese With

A poignant and humorous look at a man in search of a soul mate. James is a frustrated and underappreciated Chicago actor who lives with his mother and has only really wanted three things in life: someone to love him, a great part, and to lose weight. Unfortunately, he is 0 for 3.

His girlfriend dumps him, he loses the title role in a remake of Paddy Chayefsky's "Marty" to teen idol Aaron Carter, and he sneaks out of an Overeaters Anonymous meeting only to wind up at an ice cream parlor. There, he meets Beth who quickly wins his heart but will this cause James more problems than it solves? Or has he finally found someone to eat cheese with?
