Plot

In the vibrant and rebellious 1960s, the world is set ablaze by a groundbreaking novel, "Down with Love". This audacious bestseller, championing female empowerment and independence, declares to women worldwide that they don't need men for their happiness, but rather should seize control of their own lives. The author of this provocative book is Barbara Novak (Renée Zellweger), a sharp-witted, daring woman who's changing societal norms one page at a time. However, the book's bold message unsettles the well-established world of Catcher Block (Ewan McGregor), a notorious playboy journalist known for his love escapades. Suddenly finding himself unable to practice his usual charm, he's driven to fury and hatches a devious plan. He infiltrates Barbara's life undercover, aiming to prove that even she isn't immune to love's intoxicating allure. But Barbara, far from being a simple target, has plans of her own, weaving a complex web of romantic entanglements involving her best friend and publicist, and even Catcher's unsuspecting boss. As the stakes rise, will Catcher succeed in exposing Barbara's supposed hypocrisy to the world? Will Barbara's publicist uncover the truth before she can secure her own fairy-tale ending? Or will Barbara’s revolutionary concept of love reshape their lives, proving that falling "down with love" isn't quite the downfall it seems? "Down with Love" is a delightful homage to the spirited sex comedies of the early 1960s, starring Rock Hudson and Doris Day. This engaging film is a whirlwind of hidden agendas, mistaken identities, and most importantly, uproarious romance. Through its sparkling wit and charm, it playfully explores the timeless battle of the sexes, presenting a vibrant narrative that questions love, desire, and the power of self-determination.
