Netflix: No Reservations (2007)

producer: Isn't this kind of trite? You know, like formulaic, clashing personalities meet, fight and eventually fall in love? Pseudo-stalker/admirer takes job which he's overqualified for in order to be near woman he only knows through reputation . . . seems like it's been done before.

writer: But, they're CHEFS!

producer: Sure, we learn about foie gras, and really, nice touch.

writer: Rare!

producer: Right, got it. But, can't you add . . . I don't know . . . something to it.

thinking

writer: I got it! Orphaned niece comes to live with her. Tears, hilarity and poor child care ensue.

producer: SOLD!


Alternatively, it was only about the woman and the orphan, the love affair got shoe-horned in and ultimately became the entire movie.
