Dominic and the Ladies' Purse (2025) throws you straight into the messy, hilarious chaos that is Dominic’s life. Imagine a guy who’s a little too obsessed with his daydreams and way too good at getting himself into sticky situations. Dominic, a wannabe smooth-talker with a heart that’s probably too big for his own good, stumbles into a wild adventure after he finds a mysterious purse at a train station—yeah, really, a purse. But this isn’t just any old lost-and-found moment. Turns out, that purse belongs to a woman who’s neck-deep in her own set of troubles, and Dominic’s about to get dragged in, whether he likes it or not. The film swerves between laugh-out-loud moments and those painfully awkward situations where you kinda want to cover your eyes. There’s romance, but not the cheesy, predictable kind. The women in the story? Oh, they’re not just background extras. Each one’s got her own quirks, secrets, and opinions about Dominic’s “heroics.” Some root for him, some want to smack him upside the head. And honestly, you probably will too, at different points. As Dominic tries to play savior (with wildly mixed results), he winds up learning way more about himself than he bargained for. The story juggles comedy and sharp little truths about relationships, friendship, and figuring out what you’re really made of when the chips are down. It’s messy, it’s heartfelt, and it doesn’t take itself too seriously—kind of like Dominic, really.
