Double Word Score is a romantic comedy-drama about the ludicrous games people play in the pursuit of love. It is a film for word lovers and would-be lovers everywhere. HOLLY is a coyly romantic academic, she is intelligent but habitually guarded. JACK is the perennial 'nice guy', and afraid of looking foolish. The bitter-sweet thrill of the romantic chase plays out over the course of an evening. A tension-fueled game of Scrabble ensues: drinks flow, looks are missed and quips are misunderstood in odd and humorous ways. With two people playing, can both win?
