Henry Roth: obsessive-compulsive, somewhat misanthropic, a writer of children's books. His illustrator and only friend, Rudy, dies after a fabulously successful collaboration on "Marty, the Beaver." Henry is under contract to produce another Marty book for Christmas sales. His publisher, Arthur Planck, assigns penniless, lovelorn illustrator Lucy Reilly to work with Henry. She's sought by her ex-boyfriend Jeremy, who dumped her two years ago but shows up apologetic, having dedicated his new book to her. She and Henry go to a house on the shore to work. Will love bloom amid the rocks, or is Henry a bump on Lucy's road to Jeremy? Rudy's voice, from the grave, gives Henry counsel.

Movie Reviews

Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema - 9/10 by Mark PfeifferDedication's problem isn't its idealized conception of love but the thoroughly unconvincing way in which it is realized.
Seattle Times - 9/10 by John HartlA well-acted comedy-drama that may feature the most disagreeable gang of characters to populate any movie this year. Too bad they're not quite as much fun to watch.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer - 9/10 by Gianni TruzziTo director Justin Theroux's credit, he differentiates his film with a dusky visual style that reflects Henry's murky interior. He uses the grit of his Manhattan locations to give outward expression to Henry's volatile, selfish and terrified state of mind.
IGN Movies - 9/10 by Todd GilchristDirector Justin Theroux takes what is otherwise a fairly straightforward romantic comedy formula and turns it into an elliptical meditation on the merits of actual human connection.
Film Journal International - 9/10 by Katey RichTruly tender, truly funny...a pessimistic, unrelenting take on love that is still a date movie for anyone who wants to enjoy a romantic comedy without feeling guilty about it.
ColeSmithey.com - 9/10 by Cole SmitheyActor Justin Theroux makes an auspicious directorial debut with a disarmingly funny romantic comedy full of emotional life and witty filmic textures.
New York Post - 8/10 by Kyle SmithA pleasingly weird, dryly funny little indie.
Variety - 8/10 by Todd McCarthyIndividual scenes in actor Justin Theroux's directorial debut possess a certain flair, but the central issue on which the story turns -- how obnoxious and mean-spirited can you be and still get someone to love you? -- presents a forbidding obstacle.
Cinematical - 8/10 by Nick SchagerAn unoriginal romantic comedy that vainly attempts to mask its conventionality with all manner of eccentricities.
Reel.com - 8/10 by Jim HemphillA weird hybrid of hipster art-house film and chick flick in which the warring intentions and attitudes cancel each other out.
