Title: quirky and the actors save this
Review: The storyline in this movie is a bit thin but the lead actors (Hugh Dancy and Rose Byrne) pull it off. I thought the whole scandal involving Byrne's character's family was a tad contrived. I won't spoil it for anyone but, needless to say, it seemed like it was a bit of a filler.The main love story works mainly because of the onscreen chemistry between Hugh Dancy's quirky Asperger's syndrome affected persona and Rose Byrne's caring understanding and funloving view on life.The extras on the DVD are run of the mill although the interview of Rose Byrne by three film students was a nice change of pace.Great to see the corrupt captain from "The Wire" in a classic bit part as a friend of Dancy's recently deceased father who plays a bit of a replacement father figure in his scenes.
