Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Choose Me is a 1984 film directed by Alan Rudolph.Eve (Lesley Ann Warren) is the owner of a dive bar in a run-down section of Los Angeles. Into the bar comes Mickey (Keith Carradine), who has just sneaked out of a mental institution. Mickey, who tells a series of tall tales about how he's been a spy and a fighter pilot and a photographer with a series of magazine covers, forms an instant connection with Eve, but when he comes on a little too strong—he starts talking about getting married outside the bar, when they have known each other for only a couple of hours—Eve backs off.Meanwhile, Eve is a regular caller into a late night sex-and-relationships radio talk show hosted by appropriately-named Dr. Nancy Love (Geneviève Bujold). Eve, whose checkered sexual history involves a lot of Really Gets Around and The Mistress, pours out her romantic angst to Nancy, talking about her angst over her own inability to say no to men, and her fear of getting married because she doesn't think any marriage would last. What neither Eve nor Nancy knows is that they know each other; in fact, Nancy has rented the spare room in Eve's house. When Mickey comes over to see Eve, he meets Nancy instead, and sparks fly between them as well.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Rae Dawn Chong appears as Pearl, a married woman whose husband is having an affair with Eve.No connection to the audio drama Choose Me. | |
