Drama queen Lola once again locks horns with her rival, Carla, in this summer-after-graduation farce. A Hollywood movie being filmed in Dellwood has Lola embarking on a series of outrageous stratagems to snag a role as an extra. A satisfying conclusion recasts the comedy as less shallow than it lets on, rewarding those who like a little substance with their chick lit.
