MORNING GLORY (2010)
SYNOPSIS
From director Roger Michell ("Notting Hill," "Venus"),
producer J.J. Abrams (Felicity," "Alias," "Lost," "Star
Trek," "Fringe"), and writer Aline Brosh McKenna ("The
Devil Wears Prada," "27 Dresses"), comes "Morning
Glory," a new romantic comedy set in the hilarious and
dysfunctional world of morning television. Rachel
McAdams, Harrison Ford and Diane Keaton star, along
with Patrick Wilson and Jeff Goldblum. When
hard-working TV producer Becky Fuller (McAdams) is
fired from a local news program, her career begins to
look as bleak as her hapless love life. Stumbling into a
job at "Daybreak" (the last-place national morning
news show), Becky decides to revitalize the show by
bringing on legendary TV anchor Mike Pomeroy (Ford).
Unfortunately, Pomeroy refuses to cover morning
show staples like celebrity gossip, weather, fashion
and crafts, let alone work with his new co-host, Colleen
Peck (Keaton), a former beauty queen and longtime
morning show personality, who is more than happy
covering morning "news." As Mike and Colleen clash,
first behind the scenes and then on the air, Becky's
blossoming love affair with fellow producer, Adam
Bennett (Wilson) begins to unravel. And soon Becky is
struggling to save her relationship, her reputation, her
job and ultimately, the show itself. -- (C) Paramount
