The golden age of the classic Rock Hudson-Doris Day sex comedies – albeit with an edgy, retro-cool twist – is recreated in this “post-modern” sex comedy from “American Beauty” producers Bruce Cohen and Dan Jinks and “Bring It On” director Peyton Reed. DOWN WITH LOVE is set in the early 1960s, and every frame pops with the super-saturated palette of 60s Technicolor. Process shots, stock shots, backlot-fake NYC street scenes, snazzy apartments, and elegant supper clubs are the backdrop for DOWN WITH LOVE’s characters, including Zellweger’s best-selling advice author and McGregor’s hotshot journalist/playboy.
