Steve Martin wrote and stars in this look at the promise and dreamtime of Los Angeles culture.
Martin stars as
Harris K. Telemacher, a light-hearted television weatherman who does wacky comedy in lieu of reports since, being in L.A., he has very little weather to report. He spends his time roller-skating through museums and spending time with California's beautiful people. But
Telemacher is fired and discovers that his girlfriend
Trudi (
Marilu Henner) is having an affair. He walks away from the relationship and re-evaluates his life, getting advice from a friendly electronic highway road sign. The sign suggests that he call
SanDeE (
Sarah Jessica Parker), a sprightly and attractive Valley Girl he met in a clothing store. With
SanDeE he experiences a liberating and carefree spirit. But
Telemacher comes to realize that he has actually fallen in love with
Sara (
Victoria Tennant), a tuba-playing British journalist who is in California to do a feature on Los Angeles lifestyles.
