Oscar-nominated writer Kirstie Alley (as Byrdie Langdon) is getting long in the tooth and wide in the girth. When hot young Brittney Irvin (as Stacy Herskowitz) rejects Ms. Alley's latest script as "too old" for Hollywood's target audience, Alley hatches an even better plot. She has hot young nephew Eric Christian Olsen (as Jason Langdon) pose as a new screenplay writer, looking for work. A BMW car salesman, Mr. Olsen charms the panties off female studio executives and sells Alley's scripts, too... Problems occur when a sample script called "Father and Son" is discovered to be a word-for-word rip-off of "Kramer vs. Kramer" (1979). Alley correctly realized Hollywood youth wouldn't remember the film, but her savvy friend Stacy Grant (as Andrea Davis) becomes Olsen's latest lover and could blow everyone's cover. The ending is a little weak, by George Beckerman's "Lifetime" TV-Movie "Write & Wrong" is an otherwise a very well cast and nicely edited (by Scot Kelly) update of an old Hollywood story. ******* Write & Wrong (6/3/07) Graeme Clifford ~ Kirstie Alley, Eric Christian Olsen, Stacy Grant, Britt Irvin

Very well written film, concentrating on the frustrations of a middle aged shall we say, screenwriter who is relentlessly passed over for more younger and perhaps more salacious writers. It's a great satire on the state of, perhaps every, industry on the planet; an obsession with all things young and pretty. Pretty soon though, young and pretty will become old and perhaps not so pretty but never fear, there will be more young and pretty to take it's place! This movie concentrates on the film industry and it rocked. It was shown here in England at five before eight in the a.m. Quite early but suited me to watch it as I had a morning appointment and this ended just before I needed to leave, it was funny in all the right places but it's moral compass was firmly set to make sure the viewer got the message - older does not necessarily mean useless (useless would be more appropriate used to describe the rather brain dead bimbo who replaced the male middle aged agent representing the main character). The main character (btw) gets round the problem in an ingenious way, until the proverbial hits the fan of course! All in all though it's just terrific. Hope you can get to see it at some stage, I'd definitely watch it again, well done to all concerned.

The movie overall was pretty good.It follows a middle aged screenwriter Byrdie (Kirstie Alley) who can't sell a pitch because of her age. She gets her 25 year old nephew to pitch her ideas instead. He becomes the next hottest thing, but turmoil ensues. The main reason why the young man was her nephew was so that he was eliminated as a love interest. It was still odd that he lingered around the house and the very not aunt-like relationship they had. Kirstie's acting was brilliant, however, not everyone was as near as good. The storyline was a little bit predictable and didn't always catch my attention. The movie was okay. Hopefully, Lifetime will air it again. It was quirky and it's nice to see Kirstie working. It is enjoyable and funny.

I have seen this TV film last Saturday on the Belgium channel. This is really not a good film, rather bad actually. The acting from the main actress Kirstie Alley is too overacted. The main idea of the plot is actually not bad, but too bad cannot further develop, and only runs into boring and no story at all. I really want my time and the electricity back. It is really a bad film which nothing is entertaining at all. The only actor and actress can act up to level are the one who plays as the writer and the one who plays as the smart female film agent. By the way is this Eric Christian Olsen the son of Jim Carrey? Really look alike, they even have the kind of funny look! Back to this film, take my advice and don't waste your money, electricity and time!

I truly enjoyed Kristie Alley in this movie. Kristie Alley looked "Beautiful" I think Kristie Alley should play more roles like this one. This movie kept me tuned in to find out what would happen next. This is a cute comedy. The story line of this movie I think for some could very well be true. Kristie Alley plays a 40yr woman whom is unable to sell her screen writer's scrip because of her age. Kristie Alley knows she still has it she still has the magic. The only problem is in Hollywood /is her age. Hollywood always changing up for the fresh face. Kristie Alley also gave inspiration for the woman whom are down on their luck when it comes to being jobless. I highly recommend this movie. It is tastefully funny. I'm 38 yrs and recently laid off from work. Thank You Kristie! Lori from Seattle

I love Kirstie Alley...always have always will. But this is not one of my favorites. She is as funny as all get out, as usual. But it just didn't for it for me. I did like the idea though......a screen writer is suddenly too old to write for her studio so she enlists the help of her young nephew. She keeps writing and he poses as the writer and puts his name on her work. I couldn't help but think it was based on her own experiences....as she keeps saying in the movie "Write what you know". I felt it was a slight variation on the fact that the industry turned on her, Kirstie, when she became fat. It didn't matter how good she was....she was fat. So she had to make her own show, "Fat Actress". As you watch this movie, see if you don't pick up on that. The movie ended rather abruptly, but in general it was cute. Glad to see you "working" again Kirstie.

Kirstie Alley, looking a bit slimmer, but only a bit, is in this mess along with a man who is a MacGuyver lookalike, bleached blond hair and all. The premise of the movie is about an older woman (50!!!) who cannot get her screenplay produced due to age discrimination so she sends in her younger nephew to pose as the writer. Not an original idea and not a very good movie with lousy acting, inane dialogue and a ridiculous plot. There is another plot concerning a writer with a crush or admiration for Kirstie's character and why this is included is a mystery. The actor who portrays Kirstie's brother is so wooden and miscast, it was torture to watch their scenes. What is there to say about this film. Avoid it.

Television movies generally do not come any better than this. Kirstey Alley takes over from Judith Light in the role of queen of the TV movies, and in that role she is a highly entertaining actress. Her comedic skills are among the best, and she is also competent in dramatic scenes. Graeme Clifford is a very talented veteran director who is responsible for at least one of my favorite films, "Frances" (1982), starring Jessica Lange. It was less of a shock how good this film was when I realized he directed it. The writers were also on top of their game, with many tongue in cheek references to classic films that probably half of the audience will miss. It enriches the film, though. The film is funny and there are moments when you will laugh out loud, or simply be enraged by how snobbish and ageist some of the 'suits' in the business are. In that respect, and in many others, this film is true to life. The representation of the job market, and how some employers fail to see the strengths in certain people, seemed accurate. The character development and performances were top notch, and the score was very nice. Highly recommended!

As soon as I saw this film with Kirstie Alley, I was reminded of the great Woody Allen film "The Front." In that one, a blacklisted writer gives someone his scripts so that he can earn a living. In this one, scripts are given to a nephew by a veteran writer who is suffering from age discrimination. Kirstie Alley shows her talents as an extremely gifted actress. She is emotionally suitable for the role. Hard to believe that it has been over 20 years since she had a commanding performance as the emotionally disturbed slavery-hating Virgilia in the outstanding miniseries of "North and South." Why haven't there been better roles for Ms. Alley since then? We need to see more of her and I'm not talking about the Jennie Craig television commercials. This film beautifully details the misery caused by age discrimination as well as the fact that incompetent young people are pushed into important positions because of their youth.
