   Summary

   You are a writer that's just finished your very first screenplay, so as you learn how to eventually sell it, you decide to start going to a theater in Brooklyn to special showings of vintage films for research, starting with the 1946 noir cult classic, Gilda. To your absolute surprise, after the show is over and the lights come on, it turns out the only other person watching the vintage movie with you is none other than Sergeant James "Bucky" Barnes. You meet and hit it off, deciding to become vintage movie watchers together, and as you learn more about the mysterious sergeant, you realize you have a lot more in common than just love of vintage films. Bucky/Reader AU, post FATWS, but pre Thunderbolts.
