Interesting Romantic Comedy-Drama
23 May 2007
The storyline for this film is fairly simple: A man (played by Aaron Eckhart) meet a woman (Helena Bonham Carter) at a wedding reception in New York. The pair have an instant mutual attraction, but she has only one night to stay before flying back to her husband in England. But, have this couple met before?

This is a very engaging piece, almost entirely a two-hander between Eckhart and Carter. The whole film is shot in split-screen which mostly works quite well, although it does occasionally get irritating. It's a dialogue-driven film and benefits enormously from an intelligent and amusing script, very well-played by the two leads who succeed in making their not entirely sympathetic characters engaging.
