The Film
Burke is a motivational speaker whose book about dealing with grief is a
best seller. His wife died in a car accident three years ago. He's in
Seattle to lead a week-long workshop on healing and to negotiate a major
multi-media deal. But something's amiss: he's a closet drinker, he
won't ride elevators, his moods swing, he's estranged from his wife's
father, and he's very much alone. In a hotel hallway, he bumps into a
woman arranging flowers, tries to chat with her, and gets the brush-off.
She's Eloise, a local florist who's just broken up with a boyfriend.
He's persistent and they eventually go to dinner - it goes badly. What's
blocking Burke? Can the physician heal himself?—IMDB Synopsis
Not a bad film, though it is hilarious how hard it is trying to sell Vancouver as Seattle. With a shirtless scene that feels like an afterthought—though I'm not complaining.
