## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

Time-travel romance usually needs a DeLorean or a phone booth but here it’s a pocket watch and a lot of self-hypnosis. A writer falls for an actress he’s never met and checks out of the modern world to woo her. The only thing more questionable than the plot is the sweater choices.

**Mood tags**: bittersweet, tender
