Why these tropes fit

Aspiring screenwriter Emma Wheeler moves to Los Angeles for a six-week job re-writing a script with her idol, famous screenwriter Charlie Yates, who turns out to be dismissive of her work and dismissive of love itself. As they clash over his cynical romantic comedy script, Emma fights to defend the genre and discovers their own connection may be writing itself into a real love story.
