Carol Kane, Chris Potter, Courteney Cox

Some patients stay in therapy so long that the begin to feel just as qualified as the therapists. Most, however, don't take it as far as travel writer/phobic Samantha Crumb (Courteney Cox). When Saman...( read more  read more... )tha's therapist (Carol Kane) herself has a mental crisis, Samantha seizes the opportunity to pose as a psychologist so that she can give advice to her dashing neighbor Michael (David James Elliott), and hopefully win him away from his girlfriend. But her plans go awry when she meets carefree Henry Popopolis (David Arquette), and must choose between what she feels and what she knows. This sweetly neurotic romantic comedy is enhanced by the presence of real-life couple Cox and Arquette, as their real chemistry heats up the screen.
