Jane Wants a Boyfriend

Jane Wants a Boyfriend is a 2015 American romantic comedy drama film directed by William C. Sullivan and written by Jarret Kerr.

[1] Jane Wants a Boyfriend premiered at the Napa Valley Film Festival on November 11, 2015, and was theatrically released in the United States on March 25, 2016, to negative reviews from critics.

She works as a costume designer at the theatre that Bianca (her extremely protective older sister) is acting in, playing Titania in A Midsummer Night's Dream.

At the party, Jane meets Jack, an old friend of Bianca and Rob's who works as a sous-chef at a high-end restaurant and can't hold down a relationship.

Bianca meets Jane in the costuming department at the theatre and tells her to head to her apartment to pick out something nice for herself so they can have lunch.

Jane heads to the empty apartment, plays music, tries on dresses and acts out a scene from one of the old romance movies she loves to watch.

At a bar, Jack asks Rob to help set him up with Jane, excited about the connection they made at the party despite Bianca's warning.

Rob is taken aback, says he can't go behind Bianca's back after she told Jack to stay away, especially with the news he just received from his boss: he's been promoted to a foreign correspondent.

Jane's date, Steven, is not the handsome banker that she envisioned and becomes irritated at his tardiness, self-centeredness and their lack of chemistry.

At rehearsal the next day, Bianca gets a call from her mom about how Jane doesn't seem like herself, watching the same old romance movie over and over again the living room.

Jack tells her he can make anything she wants to eat from the menu, but she decides that they'll share her favorite food: a grilled cheese.

Jane tells him to go away, but Jack lets her know that he understands why she was overstimulated, and that he did his own reading about autism after remembering something that she said at the party and after what Rob told him.

Jane believes he thinks she's weird, but Jack comforts her in letting her know he likes her just as she is, and he only did research to understand her and support her.

Telling him to close his eyes, she surprises him by showing him a beautiful dress that she made from costume scraps that others didn't want.
