Eddie lives a life of uncommon routine. At nearly fifty-years-old, he's only ever lived in one house. Bored with his bank job, he spends evenings at the movies where he lives vicariously through Rock Hudson and Robert Mitchum. With one screen in town he often sees the same picture repeatedly. He finds Hollywood fantasies infinitely more enticing than reality.Late one Friday, a woman walks into the bank. Her name is Mary Rose, and she looks like Marilyn Monroe. Her father came into money and the two are looking to settle in a small town. Infatuated, Eddie breaks from routines and spends time with her.While she couldn't be sweeter, her father is different. He has a roughness about him, an edge. This becomes especially clear when he requests Eddie's help with a bank heist.Mary Rose's interest in Eddie was only to lure him into helping her father. Eddie understands this now. Walking away is the obvious move. He knows it's the right thing to do. Yet her attention and affection and beauty have made him feel alive for the first time.All he has to do is unlock a door.
