BAD GRANDMA

Screenplay by Danny Dortmund

Not the sweetest romantic comedy, BAD GRANDMA crackles with blunt language, blunt sexual situations, blunt characters talking about HPV, how to be rude to a clitoris, the friend zone, low self-esteem, and love/sex addiction. There’s an off-putting story here about Jake, a womanizer who cherishes his best friend’s grandmother who took his virginity in college. That grandmother Elaine has her own infatuation with a married obstetrician who’s been sleeping with her for thirty years because she’s still the best lay he’s ever had. When Jake and Elaine reconnect later in S.F. she’s planning her funeral and he’s worth millions after selling his company to Microsoft. When Elaine doesn’t wake up after a night of marathon sex, Jake realizes she was “the one” at her funeral. Script references Misery and Pretty Woman for a reason; fairy tales set in San Francisco where women cry at the opera sometimes end badly. Awkward script has explicit scenes of fisting, masturbation, and “romantic” kisses with your best friend’s grandmother. Audience may be limited.
