Cast: Lorraine Pilkington, Finlay Robertson
When Ashley's (Lorraine Pilkington) deli where she works behind the counter making sandwiches shuts down for the day, she waits at her bus stop to return home. As she's waiting all alone that morning, some guy starts to chat her up then persists in soliciting her. Disgusted, she turns to leave the scene and he tosses his scalding cup of coffee at her hitting her on the head with his empty cup. Before she can react, he's gone. After this humiliating start to her day, Ashley runs into another stranger (Finlay Robertson) at the grocery store where she's buying napkins to wipe the coffee out. He's a regular customer at her deli and offers to take her to breakfast. Over a cuppa he tells her he wants her help with smoothening relations between him and his sour sister, asking if she'd help pick out something for his sister's birthday. She agrees and in the process, he has her try on a lot of clothing and then buys her her favorite dress. Flabbergasted by this generosity, Ashley bit by bit spends the entire day together with the stranger having a marvelous time.
This movie's a treat for those of us who've wished for that encounter with a handsome stranger turning into something truly special and wonderful.
Rating: Four stars.
