Jennifer Westfeldt has done it again with her latest film - Ira & Abby. Her first film, Kissing Jessica Stein, was great and this new one is just as quirky and fun.Ira and Abby meet at a gym. He is there to change some things in his life, and she is the salesperson responsible for getting new business.
After talking for hours, Abby asks Ira to marry her. After all, half of marriages end in divorce, so why is it any crazier to get married to a stranger.
What follows is a struggle to get to know each other that provides a commentary on marriage as it is in the world today.
Westfeldt has once again made a comedy with a point - to comment on a part of our society. And she does it in a way that is not preachy or judgmental.
