A Suburban slice of the life of the girl next door
101 Ways (The Things A Girl Will Do To Keep Her Volvo) chronicles the romantic and sometimes vexing adventures of a struggling young writer, Watson Gowan (Wendy Hoopes). As the film opens, Watson has just moved to the suburbs in New Haven, Connecticut in order to concentrate on her budding writing career. Having grown up in Manhatten her entire life, she is a neophyte to suburbia and of course, to driving.
Her over-possessive mother, who is neurotic about safety, convinces her to buy a Volvo, which she quickly realizes she can't afford. Alluding to the famous college dorm flyer "101 Ways to Make Love Without Having Sex", the film follows Watson's attempts to balance romance, paying her bills and writing her first novel. But it really boils down to affording her Volvo payments and experimenting with the boys cruising in and out of her life. With star cast performances, this is a slice-of-life, behind-the-scenes look at the delightful girl next door.
