Director Alek Keshishian has few works. He graduated from Harvard and directed the 1991 documentary "Madonna: Truth or Dare". But this film is really suitable No boredom to watch at home. Especially unless you're a big fan of Matthew Rhys or Brittany Murphy, you don't lose if you don't watch it. No wonder Rotten Tomatoes is only 20%. After
watching this film, I finally understand why straight guy Matthew Rhys was chosen to play "Brothers" & Sisters" gay brother/lawyer Kevin Walker.
The story is simple, with some laughs and a little surprise. Brittany Murphy plays Jacks, an American who is an intern in British Vogue, and lives with his college best friend Peter (Matthew Rhys). One day Peter met in a hotel and thought he was the love of his life, that is, love at first sight. It turned out that David Williams, who always thought he was the real one, was not that person.
The main point of the story is that love is often not as simple or passive as fate or destiny. In fact, many times it is our choice.
We choose to try, to start a relationship. Although it doesn't seem like the real one at first, or some distance from the lover of our dreams, it is often these attempts that lead us to find the one We can walk the other half of life together.
Also, the truth of the truth is often deceived by ourselves, or we can't see it clearly, thinking that it is the whole truth, but it is not.
