NURSE BETTY is a fiery comedy from director Neil LaBute (IN THE COMPANY OF MEN, YOUR FRIENDS & NEIGHBORS). Betty Sizemore, a waitress in a small Kansas town who lives vicariously through her favorite soap opera stars, fantasizes about a perfect life like that of the doctors and nurses on the TV show A REASON TO LOVE. When her insensitive husband brings an illegal business deal into their home and is brutally murdered, Betty escapes into her soap opera fantasy and begins a search for the dashing Dr. Ravell, whom she believes to be her long-lost love. Meanwhile, the killers realize Betty was a witness to the crime and begin a cross-country pursuit to find her. A spry, touching film, NURSE BETTY\'s absurdity is contagiously funny.
