What if the love of your life is your ex-wife? That's what James realizes as he stumbles through the strange ritual of New York dating. With the help of his sarcastic 11-year-old-son and his quirky and diverse circle of family and friends, James sets out to win Barbara's heart, again, before she marries another man. An uplifting Manhattan romance, LOVE, REPEAT reminds us that sometimes the past is yet to come.

Directed by Shelagh Carter, LOVE, REPEAT was written by Bill Connington (Poughkeepsie is for Lovers, Zombie Off-Broadway).

LOVE, REPEAT was produced by Kelley Van Dilla with executive producer Bill Connington and co-producers Joseph Pojanowski and Michael Vanderpool.

Bill Connington, screenwriter and star of LOVE, REPEAT says, "I'm a fan of love stories and I wanted to write something that reflects real people and their experiences. James has to grapple with learning how to get in touch with his feelings. He's a grown man, but in a certain way, it's a "coming of age" story. I don't want to give too much away, but let's just say that I'm a fan of happy endings! The film is my valentine to New York. And it's a valentine to the people of the city."

Shelagh Carter, director of LOVE, REPEAT says, "The comedy, the romance and the intelligence remind me of Richard Curtis films like, Love Actually and FOUR WEDDINGS and a Funeral. I think people are going to fall in love with the film, and fall in love with Bill."

LOVE, REPEAT is now available on the following platforms: Amazon, iTunes, FandangoNOW, Google Play, Youtube Movies, AT&T U-Verse, DirecTV, Dish, Vubiquity (Verizon Fios), Vudu, Xbox and Hoopla (libraries). The DVD will be available in January 2021 on Amazon.com, Barnesandnoble.com, Bestbuy.com and Walmart.com.
