Tagline: We’re not in Manhattan anymore.
A highly successful Manhattan couple, Meryl and Paul Morgan (Sarah Jessica Parker and Hugh Grant), whose almost-perfect lives have only one notable failure – their dissolving marriage. But the turmoil of their romantic lives is nothing compared to what they are about to experience: they witness a murder and become targets of a contract killer.
The Feds, protecting their witnesses, whisk away the Morgans from their beloved New York to a tiny town in Wyoming, and a relationship that was on the rocks threatens to end completely in the Rockies… unless, in their new BlackBerry-free lives, the Morgans can slow down the pace and rekindle the passion.
Marc Lawrence is no stranger to writing and directing romantic comedies, most notably Music and Lyrics and Two Weeks Notice. But it was while shooting those films that he was developing idea, a story that would push his boundaries within the genre by covering new ground: marriage.
