Renee Bennett (Amy Schumer) is a young woman who struggles with low self-esteem and insecurities over her appearance. Out of a Chinatown basement office, she manages the website for cosmetics firm Lily LeClaire with co-worker Mason, while aspiring to work in their Fifth Avenue headquarters. When a vacancy for a receptionist comes up at HQ, she decides not to apply after reading the job description's emphasis on being the beautiful "face" of LeClaire. One night, inspired by the movie Big, Renee wishes at a fountain to be beautiful, but nothing happens. The next day, Renee falls off her SoulCycle bike during an exercise class, hitting her head and losing consciousness. When she wakes, she has not changed physically, but she believes herself to be astonishingly beautiful.. |

otsoNY Comments: Though there was aerial footage of New York's Chinatown, in particularly Mott Street, when the scene cuts to Amy, it is likely that she is walking along a street in Boston's Chinatown district, as in this scene her office exterior is situated on Harrison Avenue in Boston.

otsoNY Comments: Although this street resembles New York's Greenwich Village, it is in fact Tremont Street in the heart of Boston.

otsoNY Comments: The filmmakers once again use a Boston's cleaners to double for that of a New York cleaners. This time they use Andy's Cleaners at the corner of Washington Street and Worcester Street.


|

otsoNY Comments: The exterior shot shows the cafe on the corner of Waverly Place and Gay Street in New York's Greenwich Village, but when the scene cuts to inside the cafe, the actors are now in Metropolis Cafe at 584 Tremont Street in Boston.

otsoNY Comments: Another location in Boston doubling for that of a New York Chinatown restaurant.
