Synopsis
Love and Other Disasters (2006) — watch online on iFILM, a breezy British-French romantic comedy directed by Alek Keshishian with Brittany Murphy at her most charming. Ninety-one minutes of London fashion, matchmaking gone wrong, and one colossal misunderstanding.
Emily "Jacks" Jackson works at British Vogue, shares a flat with gay screenwriter Peter (Matthew Rhys), and has an impressive record of fixing everyone else's love life while ignoring her own. When Argentinian photographer's assistant Paolo (Santiago Cabrera) shows up, she's convinced he's gay and immediately starts playing cupid. Paolo has other ideas. Catherine Tate and Jamie Sives round out the ensemble; Orlando Bloom and Gwyneth Paltrow turn up in cameos.
Keshishian keeps things light and self-aware — it's a film that knows its genre and works happily within it. Good for a Sunday afternoon when the plot should be fun and the ending never in doubt. Stream Love and Other Disasters (2006) online on iFILM.
