A romantic comedy-drama that pushes the very tender line between love sex and friendship! Nina a social worker shares a cozy flat with her dear friend George who happens to be gay. When Nina becomes pregnant by her overbearing boyfriend she begs George to step into the breach - but is he ready to be a surrogate dad?
'The Object Of My Affection' is a stunning romantic comedy from director Nicholas Hytner ('The History Boys', 'The Madness Of King George')starting Jennifer Aniston ('Tv's Friends', 'The Break-Up') and Paul Rudd ('Knocked Up', 'The 40-Year-Old Virgin') in a film which shows sometimes the relationship you want the most is one you can never enjoy.
When George Hanson (Rudd) leaves his partner, he gos to Brooklyn to live with Nina Borowski (Anniston), a woman he had met recently while attending a get-together at his parents house.
Nina announces Paul that she is pregnant, and when she and her partner have relationship troubles, the man she falls for is her new friend and room-mate. Paul seems to have similar feelings, but the problem is that Paul happens to be gay.
The film itself is more a romance film rather than a comedy, but overall is a touching story which gives you a few laughs.
In my personal words the way to describe the film is: It's one of those films which needs to be watched not knowing what it's about. Even if you wouldn't like it, it's something that needs to be watched.
I would personally give the film a 6/10 rating and enjoy the films over and over.
