But at the moment, she's living in New York City and writing advertising jingles to pay the rent while her fiancé, Jack, pursues his singing career
So when Amanda's mother, Kim, calls one evening from New Hampshire and asks for her help with something she can't discuss over the phone, Amanda is only too happy to leave New York
Once home, Kim reveals that she's leaving Amanda's father and needs help packing
Amanda balks and ends up hitting on the postman - who happens to be her first boyfriend
They spend the night together in an apple orchard, where Amanda tries to tell Billy how her life got sidetracked
It has something to do with being a young woman in a profession that only recognizes famous men
Billy acts like he might have the answer, but doesn't
Neither does Amanda's mother
Or, for that matter, her father
A Feminine Ending is a gentle, bitter-sweet comedy about a girl who knows what she wants but not quite how to get it
