Pitch!

Today i have been starting my pitch!
I have looked at lots of different films in the genre of Romantic comedies and realised i have watched MOST of them!
I also watched 27 dresses, and i love how well my storyline and this film connect.
SO i thought i would upload it onto here...

The Story
27 Dresses follows the adventures of Jane (Heigl), a perennial bridesmaid who's had the word no exorcised from her vocabulary. Jane should be getting paid as a wedding planner but instead her full-time job is working as the right-hand woman to the CEO of an environmentally-friendly clothing and outdoor equipment company. Said CEO, George (Edward Burns), is a hunk and a half who loves dogs, does lots of charity work, and is clueless to the fact Jane has a massive crush on him.

George however isn’t blind to all pretty women. When Jane’s sassy sister Tess (Malin Akerman) comes for a visit, George falls pretty much head over heels for the perky blonde and in record time the two are engaged and Jane’s left to plan their nuptials.

James Marsden enters the scene as Kevin, a newspaper reporter who covers the wedding beat. Kevin’s cynical demeanor masks the fact he writes lovely articles that have brides-to-be vying for his attention. Kevin spots Jane going from wedding to wedding and decides she’s worthy of a special column, one which he hopes will do well enough to free him forever from covering the wedding beat – a job he claims to loathe doing. Despite their opposing outlooks on life, Jane and Kevin develop an uneasy sort of friendship. And because 27 Dresses springs from the romantic comedy cookie cutter mold, that uneasy friendship is, of course, the heart of the story.


I took this storyline from here: http://movies.about.com/od/27dresses/fr/27dresses011708.htm
