Synopsis

If Breakfast at Tiffany's were transposed to modern-day London – with dashes of U.K. romantic comedy conventions, "Sex and the City" sparkle and a handful of hysterical celebrity cameos for good measure – you'd have this breezy, queer-inclusive confection from director Alek Keshishian (Madonna: Truth or Dare)!

Review

Emily Jackson (Brittany Murphy), better known to her friends as "Jacks," works as an assistant at "Vogue." Her wardrobe and Mini Cooper wheels may be enviable and top-of-the-line, but her love life is stagnant and dysfunctional. Ditto for her gay roommate, Peter (Matthew Rhys), a screenwriter with a fanciful imagination – especially in regards to a striking stranger that he sees in a hotel lobby. Could this mysterious lobby guy be "the one"? Meanwhile, enter Paolo (Santiago Cabrera), a potential romantic interest for – well, we're not sure, since he seems gay but may actually be straight! Chock-full of fabulous eye candy (provided by the high fashion milieu and the gorgeous cast), zingy dialogue, amusing romantic foibles, charming performances and big-name Hollywood cameos that we'll leave as a surprise, Love and Other Disasters is a thorough success.
