Story:
Ed Stone's directorial debut is a charming and poignant love story. Griffin (Dermot Mulroney) is a NY insurance broker, diagnosed with cancer and given less than two years to live. Griffin is estranged from his ex and two sons who he doesn't really know as he buries himself in work. Griffin changes when he meets Phoenix (Amanda Peet) during a university lecture She is a professor who is also obsessed with work. They carry on an enchanting courtship and discover mutual interests, fantasies and indulgences. The film ends when Phoenix reveals her life's secret which binds them together forever. Amanda Peet (Syriana) shows her versatility and logs a solid performance! Most intriguing is the title, which Stone chose from historical/mythical origins!
