MRC Film/TStreet
Shes in a relationship with Luke (Ehrenreich) and he steals her away for a quickie.
However, they quickly realize she has started her period.
He was going to surprise her with a marriage proposal, one that she promptly says yes to.
When she returns home from the meeting, Emily is solemn.
Seeing her demeanor causes Luke to assume shes been assaulted, when in actuality shes been promoted above him.
He congratulates her but his eyes tell a different story.
She offers to help him get a promotion, although he prefers to do it on his own merit.
Its a known fact that the biggest reason for divorce and relationship breakups is money.
Between Luke and Emily, her status is what causes their eventual disconnection.
As the only woman with some form of power at work, screwing up could cost her everything.
Domonts script addresses several different themes at once.
They lie over and over to one another, to other people, all over a damn promotion.
The dialogue by Domont is just as unhinged.
Fair Playshouldnt have been almost two hours, though.
double-check you have the spoons to sit throughFair Playas it is fierce and bleak.
My goodness, I pray to never have to witness to anything like this in real life.
It was hard enough to watch in a theater!
The film is produced by MRC and T-Street.
