Hollywood Has It Backwards: a short story
Hollywood Has It Backwards (a short story):
Whether we want them to or not, movies shape our expectations. Take dating, relationships, and love, for example. We expect unrealistic bliss from each of these because we have watched and enjoyed countless happily-ever-after endings.
But Marc, the narrator of this short story, learned to see right through Hollywood's false promises and myths. Or so he thought.
When a pair of wondrous, blue eyes stare at him for the first time, his cynical armor crumbles and his life changes in ways that even the most seasoned Hollywood storyteller could not predict.
