Cue the Meet Cute

Margery has always loved three things: romantic comedies, predictability, and the legacy of her family's video rental store. But when her beloved, yet struggling, small-town movie rental shop is threatened by her parents' impending divorce, her carefully curated life starts to unravel. Determined not to let her dream job fade into nostalgia, she launches a summer-long community dating event to save it. There’s just one problem: she’s never been on a date before. To her dismay, her coworker-slash-cinema-nemesis, Henry, considers himself a dating expert—and he’s all too eager to lend a hand. Layered with pivotal early-2000s cinematic references, sharp banter, rain-soaked confessions, and a killer soundtrack, Cue the Meet Cute is a sweet, self-aware story that toes the line between comfort and change. It’s about taking risks to write our own stories and finding beauty in the mess before the credits roll.
