Second Act

 

What a story!  Andy has a dream job as the head of a movie studio.  That is, until the company is bought and the new owner gives his son Andy's job as head of studio.  Andy is lost because his identity is so tied to his job.  His love interest drops him because he is no longer useful to her as a rising actress.  He's no longer invited to the important parties, has lost so called friends and pretty much isolates in his beautiful Hollywood home.

Andy tells his assistant to find him a home somewhere isolated in another country.  She finds the perfect home in the British countryside.  It is available for a short-term rental, 6 months, which is just perfect for Andy.  He settles in and walks down to the shore where he finds a woman walking the beach with tears in her eyes.

The remaining story is heart-warming and provides direction in Andy's life showing him what really is important.  Will he return to Hollywood as a head of a movie studio when the offer comes in?  

I enjoyed this story as it is a story about humanity and how other people are important in our lives, not homes, status and material possessions.
