Taglines: A kiss-and-tell-all comedy.
Amy’s Orgasm movie storyline. A woman who gives advice on relationships for a living is trying to make sense of her own problems with the opposite sex in this independent romantic comedy. Amy (Julie Davis) is a single woman in her mid-twenties who has recently published a self-help book called Why Love Doesn’t Work, in which she discusses why a woman doesn’t need a husband or a boyfriend to feel fulfilled. But Amy isn’t so sure she believes her own advice, and after four years without a steady relationship, she wants a man in her life.
Feeling conflicted, Amy isn’t sure where to turn or with whom she can discuss her relationship issues; she ends up sharing her problems with a priest (Jeff Cesario) who mans the confessional at a nearby Catholic church, even though Amy is Jewish. As Amy’s book hits the stores, Janet (Caroline Aaron), a friend who works as a publicist for her publisher, snags Amy an appearance on a radio show hosted by Matthew Starr (Nick Chinlund), a popular but foul-mouthed “shock jock.” Matthew is exactly the sort of man Amy warns her readers to stay away from, so she isn’t sure why she finds herself attracted to him — or why he seems to be interested in her.
