I LOVE YOU, FRANK SINATRA is a serious comedy about redemption-about two people who have been hurt by love-and who have inflicted hurt themselves. Benjamin Borelli-a struggling playwright who works in a bowling alley - and Missy Reardon-an editor at the New York Times who strives to live in a world of grace and charm-both live with the pain of their pasts. They throw up walls-to protect themselves from human contact. This begins to change when Beverly Grimaldi, Benjamin's sister, decides to fix-up Benjamin with Heather McCauley. This is destined to failure - but Benjamin meets Heather's roommate-Missy. And although Benjamin and Missy fight it, they are drawn to each other. Benjamin falls hard. "It's a conflict," he screams to his sister. "A major conflict!" He then sets out to break down the walls between Missy and himself. Along the way, he helps Beverly and Frank break down the wall that has risen between them. And then there's Rodman Jones, the director of Benjamin's new play, who's interested in Missy and Heather. Benjamin and Missy spar and jab with each other: drawing alternatively closer and then further apart. When they finally smash the walls and throw themselves into passion-it seems all their dreams are smashed as well. Through a twist of fate, Missy ends up taking a small role in Benjamin's play. And when she suddenly says the wrong line in the wrong place during the opening-night performance-"Maybe the most important dream of all is never to stop dreaming"-it throws Benjamin and Missy together for a final confrontation. A confrontation with their pasts and with themselves. A confrontation with redemption.
