Jack Nicholson, Diane Keaton and Frances McDormand star with
Keanu Reeves and Amanda Peet in a sophisticated romantic
comedy from writer/director Nancy Meyers (What Women Want,
The Parent Trap), which proves that in matters of the heart,
you can expect the unexpected.
Harry Sanborn (Jack
Nicholson) is a perennial playboy with a libido much younger
than his years. During what was to have been a romantic
weekend with his latest infatuation, Marin (Amanda Peet), at
her mother's Hamptons beach house, Harry develops chest
pains. He winds up being nursed by Marin's reluctant mother,
Erica Barry (Diane Keaton) -- a successful, divorced New
York playwright. In the process, Harry develops more heart
pangs -- the romantic kind -- for Erica, an age appropriate
woman whom he finds beguiling.
However, some habits die
hard. When Harry hesitates, his charming thirty- something
doctor (Keanu Reeves) steps in and starts to pursue Erica.
And Harry, who has always had the world on a string, finds
his life unraveling.
