Synopsis
Jersey Girl (2004) is a romantic comedy-drama from director Kevin Smith you can watch online on iFILM. Ben Affleck plays Ollie Trinke, a slick Manhattan music publicist who thinks he has the whole thing figured out: new wife, a baby on the way, a career on fire.
Then it all caves in. His wife dies in childbirth, a meltdown at a press junket torches his career, and the once-untouchable publicist ends up raising a baby at his gruff father's place in Jersey. Years later he hauls trash, dotes on his daughter Gertie, and pretends he's fine with it. Maya, a sharp-tongued video-store clerk played by Liv Tyler, throws that quiet routine off balance.
Smith, better known for raunchy comedies, leans tender here, building a story about single fatherhood and starting over. George Carlin and Jennifer Lopez round out the cast, with quick cameos from Will Smith and Matt Damon. Stream Jersey Girl (2004) online on iFILM.
