Week 6 - Brief plot outline for a romantic comedy - Andy - Take 2

This is the first time i've taken a second run at a thing a week. It's still before deadline. The previous effort was a bloated shambles, that took the idea and ruined it.


Untitled Amy Huberman project.

Mary Ryan seems to have it all, she's 29, and already the marketing director for Irish Foods. Sure, she has no time for her beloved cooking, and her boyfriend is cheating on her, but who cares about that when you're the head of marketing for Ireland's biggest food company!

Driving home one night, she is caught in a mysterious storm, and whipped back to 1951 Ireland.

Trying to survive in this strange time, she finds herself to be the most modern chef of the era, the most forward thinking businessperson in Ireland and an unlikely feminist leader, as she rouses the women of 1951 Ballybeggan to step out of the house.

She also attracts more than a glance from rich farmer, Liam, and mysterious, silent pub landlord, Aidan.

But as she confronts the social mores of mid-century, small town Ireland, it isn't long before Mary finds herself at odds with powerful forces in the community.
