Love and Other Drugs is a romantic comedy starring Anne Hathaway and Jake Gyllenhaal.  These two guys, of course, fall in love after trying to “keep it simple.”  Gyllenhaal plays a drug rep and Hathaway plays a “free spirit” or whatever that means.  The trailer is entertaining and mildly amusing.  I have to say that the Gyllenhaal is bringing the cuteness in this movie (sorry, I am a girl).  Edward Zwick co-wrote the screenplay and directed, which gives me hope that this will be a good movie.  Zwick produced my favorite TV show, My So-Called Life, and directed one of my favorite movies, Legends of the Fall.  He also has a lot of other great projects under his belt, which recently included Defiance and Blood Diamond.  Judy Greer, Hank Azaria, Gabriel Macht, Oliver Platt, and George Segal also star.

Love and Other Drugs is in theatres November 24, 2010.

P.S. The song in the second half of the trailer is “Beautiful Girl” by INXS.
