Story

The Perfect Match is a comedy film with Marc McClure and Jennifer Edwards in the lead roles[1][2] They come together as a result of an ad placed in a lonely hearts column.[3] Tim Wainwright is almost hitting the 30 year old age mark. He wants to find a nice girl. So he puts an ad in the LA Reader and gets dozens of calls with many of them being scary. He's just about ready to give up on this idea, before things change for the better when he gets a reply from Nancy, who seems to be a nice girl.[4] The thing with him is that he is a man who has little ambition and Nancy is a woman who works at a video store and wastes her time taking college classes which don't get her any closer to graduation. Not being totally honest with each other, they both invent inflated career statuses with her claiming to be a professor and him pretending to own a business. The truth starts to come out and they try to deal with it to make things work in their romance.[5][6] According to Jonathan Rosenbaum, the film is almost identical to Armyan Bernstein's 1987 film Cross My Heart.[7]
