Nurse Betty : Friday
September 8, 2000 |
What happens when a person decides that life is merely a state of mind? If
you're Betty (Renée Zellweger), a small-town waitress and soap opera fan
from Fair Oaks, Kansas, you refuse to believe that you can't be with the
love of your life just because he doesn't really exist. After all, life is
no excuse for not living.
The popular daytime TV drama A Reason to Love has an especially
devoted viewer in Betty, a young woman with a good heart and a bad
marriage. Her no-good car salesman husband, Del (Aaron Eckhart), treats
her like dirt and forgets her birthday. At home one night watching a
videotape of that day's episode, Betty watches raptly as her favorite
character, Dr. David Ravell, stares up at the moon and says, "I know
there's someone special out there for me." Betty feels as if he's
speaking directly to her. That is, until her husband comes home with two
men to negotiate a shady business deal. As she tries to watch her show,
Betty becomes an accidental witness to this deal going fatally awry: Del
offends courtly hit man Charlie (Morgan Freeman) and his excitable protégé
Wesley (Chris Rock), and is violently dispatched.© 2000 Universal Studios
