Run time: 98 min.

A truly unique and visually stunning take on meta-fiction, Lovely By Surprise, follows the journey of novelist Marian Walker as she attempts to finish her first novel.

Facing the age-old problem of writer's block, Marian seeks advice from a mentor (and ex-lover). His seemingly innocent advice to kill the book's protagonist unleashes chaos in her life as a willful protagonist escapes from her novel and appears in the unresolved corners of her past.

At turns funny, lyrical, dark and mysterious, this enigmatic film explores past present, art and reality, life and death, ultimately revealing the strength and beauty of the human heart.

Shot in and around Memphis and starring Carrie Preston (also featured in 2009's Opening Night Narrative, That Evening Sun) with Dallas Roberts, Austin Pendleton, Kate Burton, Reg Rogers and Richard Masur.
