The film is adapted from Jason Robert Brown's 2002 musical of the same name. The hero Jamie (famous actor Jeremy Jordan) meets the heroine Kathy (Kendrick). At that time, he is a fledgling writer, she is a promising actress, and the two fall in love and get married. Have a good time. Then Jamie's first book was a great success, and his writing career boomed, while Kathy performed silently in a small theater in Ohio, never waiting for a chance to become famous. As a result, their once happy marriage hit the rocks, and they fell in love for five years, resulting in a tragic end.
