Playing House

2005 Comedy

A junior copy editor at a prominent New York publishing house must choose between starting a family and chasing her dreams when an unplanned pregnancy threatens to sideline her career ambitions. When Frannie (Joanne Kelly) landed author Michael Tate (Colin Ferguson) as a client, it was a dream come true. But almost as soon as she begins working with her favorite writer, Frannie makes a shocking discovery. She is pregnant, and the father is her new boyfriend Calvin (Lucas Bryant). Though they've hardly been together a couple of months, they both agree to leave the city and start a family. But almost as soon as they buy a house in the suburbs, a stranger appears with promises of sweeping Frannie back to the city to live the life she's always dreamt about. Even as the bright lights of New York beckon her, however, Frannie begins to sense that perhaps a life with Calvin is what she truly needed all along. more..
