Shirin in Love Page #4

Synopsis: Love has no borders and therein lies the premise of the charming, new Iranian-American romantic comedy "Shirin in Love." Nazanin Boniadi plays Shirin, an absent-minded, young Iranian-American living in "Tehrangeles" (the large Iranian community in Los Angeles) with her overbearing mother and empathetic father. Despite being engaged for years to a successful Iranian plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills, Shirin finds herself breaking loyalty and tradition when she falls in love with a mysterious young man who lives in a lighthouse in northern California. As her secret unravels and cultures clash, Shirin discovers what it ultimately means to be true to herself.

Oh.

Dream sequences are

kind of a movie thing. So...

I don't know.

You let me think

about it, all right?

Promise me.

If you stay off my

street for a few weeks,

I'm not gonna write

you a ticket, okay?

I promise.

Promise.

- You promise?

- Promise.

'Cause I don't want

to see you anymore.

Thank you, Marvin.

( starts car )

( music )

Driving,

Singing on the highway

Starin' at the skyline

Floating in space

Hey there

Scoot a little closer

What's your favorite color?

Posies in May

So lovely on my pillow

Spinning webs with rainbows

Sending telegrams to Mars

( thundering )

Just my luck.

GPS:
Turn left in 500 feet.

There is no left.

Recalculating.

Recalculating.

Turn left.

What? You want me

to drown in the ocean?

There's no left.

Turn left.

Ugh!

Sunday

Coffee at the bookshop

Sirens out the window

Oh, man.

GPS:
Turn right.

Where am I?

You have arrived

at your destination.

She lives in the middle

of nowhere.

Where the hell are we?

( raining )

( thunder )

Rachel:
Yes?

May I help you?

Hi.

Yeah, my car broke down.

Can I use your phone?

Oh sure.

Come on in.

Thank you.

Oh.

I locked myself

out of my car.

Oh.

You better wipe yourself

off before you get pneumonia.

Clearly, that's not gonna work

so I'll get you a bigger towel.

Thanks.

Here.

- Thank you.

- Oh, you're welcome.

Oh. You know, why don't

you make the call later.

Come on with me.

Yeah, just follow me.

That's good.

Come on in.

Sit by the fire.

I don't want to bother you.

If you could just give

me a number for a taxi,

I'll go to a hotel and find

somebody to help me with my car?

You're not from

around here, are you?

No.

Los Angeles.

Because the closest hotel

is about 20 miles away,

no one is gonna come

out here in this weather.

Stay here tonight.

You can take care of

everything in the morning.

Oh, that is way

too much trouble.

No. Shh. I don't want

to hear about it.

Please, sit down.

Well...

I don't know. I really

shouldn't be drinking.

You know, if you have just

one keeps you very warm.

Okay.

There you go.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

So, what are you doing

around here?

Work.

I'm a journalist.

You're a journalist?

Well, not really a journalist.

I'm more of a book

reviewer for a magazine.

I'm looking for someone.

She's an author.

Her name is Rachel Harson.

Hmm.

May I ask why?

Uh, I'm writing a story on her,

although I'm pretty sure

she won't talk to me.

She seems like a

pretty difficult woman.

You know, that's funny. I've

heard the same thing about her.

What magazine did

you say you wrote for?

BH Style.

Have you heard of it?

No, but I'm... I'm not

a magazine person.

I'm sure it's very nice.
