Strong Desire to Love Someone, Love Story

For the single, committed and about to be hooked – "Love & Other Drugs" is charting its way to the top in the list of date movies to watch.

Anne Hathaway and Jake Gyllenhaal bring their richly delineated roles to life as they head on in this unconventional and realistic romance that explores love and sex, how sex or lust evolves into love and how people go through a lot figuring it all out.

The fictional setting of "Love & Other Drugs" is based on the nonfiction tome "Hard Sell: The Evolution of a Viagra Salesman" by Jamie Reidy, who chronicles his experiences as he played and beat the pharmaceutical industry at its own game in the late ‘90s. Jake plays cocky young Pfizer salesman Jamie Randall who eventually meets his match in Maggie (Hathaway), an artist who is as casual when it comes to relationships.
