Back for Good (2017)
Max Kelly is a pathetic cliché. She moved to New York to be an actress, but five years later, she's a single cocktail waitress whose agent just hanged herself. When her hometown ex sends her the sign she's been waiting for, Max starts to wonder why she left home in the first place. Sometimes to move forward, you have to move back.

    Meh
    It was okay but hard pressed to recommend. The writing was okay. The acting seemed strained. The story line was vanilla. Virtually no plot. Nominal character development. Good news? It was short.
