The charged chemistry between Billy Crudup and Mandy Moore sparks this appealing romantic comedy. He's an ornery children's book author; she's a cheery illustrator assigned to work with him after the death of his long-time friend and collaborator (Tom Wilkinson). The film is the directorial debut of actor Justin Theroux, and features appearances by actor-directors Peter Bogdanovich and Bob Balaban. Dianne Wiest is outstanding as Moore's wacky mother. Amy Sedaris, Christine Taylor.
