Bounce
Two strangers fell in love. One knew it wasn't by chance.
Directed by Don Roos
Produced by Miramax
A romantic drama about guilt and redemption, where a man's selfish act triggers a plane crash and sets him on a path toward atonement and unexpected love with the widow he inadvertently created.
Buddy Amaral, a successful and self-absorbed Los Angeles advertising executive, switches airline tickets with a stranger just before boarding a long-delayed flight so that he might enjoy an overnight fling with a pretty Dallas businesswoman. When the plane goes down, killing all aboard, Buddy's guilt soon turns into an alcohol problem. As part of his 12-step program, Buddy seeks atonement and decides to seek out the woman he thinks he's left a widow.
