The Jennifer Lawrence comedy No Hard Feelings feels like a wacky idea only the movies could come up with. A woman who is down on her luck financially sees a job posting by a pair of helicopter parents to date their introverted 19-year-old son to give him some life experience before he goes off to college. But is No Hard Feelings actually based on a true story?
The movie was directed by Gene Stupnitsky, who co-wrote it along with John Phillips. So where did the inspiration come from? Let's take a closer look.
