Next Stop Wonderland
Love is the destination.
Directed by Brad Anderson
Produced by Miramax
A charming romantic comedy about two lonely people repeatedly missing each other while stumbling toward love through embarrassing dates and near-misses in Boston.
Dumped by her loser boyfriend, Erin's love life hits rock bottom when her overbearing mother places an embarrassing ad in the "personals" section of a local newspaper on her behalf. Erin's disgust turns to curiosity as she searches for the right guy in a hilarious series of disastrous dates. Meanwhile, a lonely ex-plumber named Alan clumsily searches for his dream job while narrowly missing one chance meeting with Erin after another.
