Written and directed by and starring Henry Jaglom, Someone to Love is a 1987 American independent film that features cameo appearances by a number of famous movie and theatre personalities.
The film takes place during a party at the home of film director Danny (played by Jaglom), where an eclectic group of his friends and actors gather to converse about love and relationships. The partygoers include Sally Kellerman, Michael Emil, Andrea Marcovicci, and Orson Welles, who serves as the "judge" of these conversations.
Throughout the evening, the guests explore the complexities of love, discussing topics such as unrequited love, the fear of commitment, and the search for someone to love. These discussions are interspersed with scenes from Danny's films, offering an additional layer to the exploration of love and relationships.
As the night progresses, tensions build and secrets are revealed, culminating in a final confrontation between Danny and his ex-girlfriend (played by Andrea Marcovicci).
The film is known for its improvisational style and its use of non-professional actors, making it a unique and experimental addition to the romantic comedy genre. Someone to Love offers a poignant and insightful look at the search for connection and intimacy in modern relationships.
