The story

Overweight, depressed improv actor James is a Second City cast member in Chicago.

James' girlfriend Andrea breaks up with him, and his agent Herb dumps him.

While wearing a pirate costume for a hot dog stand, James hears about a Chicago-based remake of Paddy Chayefsky's 1955 Marty, his favorite film, and one that mirrors his adult life.
