The trailer for CRAZY STUPID LOVE has everything I want. Steve Carell is back to playing the straight man, Ryan Gosling is cool as anything, and us boys have Marisa Tomei and Emma Stone to stare at.
The movie basically has Ryan Gosling mentoring Steve Carell in the ways of charisma and style to get the ladies after Carell’s wife (Julianne Moore) admits to cheating on him. And that doesn’t mean that Gosling doesn’t have a life changing moment as well…
The Official Synopsis reads:
“At fortysomething, straight-laced Cal Weaver (Steve Carell) is living the dream–good job, nice house, great kids and marriage to his high school sweetheart. But when Cal learns that his wife, Emily (Julianne Moore), has cheated on him and wants a divorce, his “perfect” life quickly unravels. Worse, in today’s single world, Cal, who hasn’t dated in decades, stands out as the epitome of un-smooth. Now spending his free evenings sulking alone at a local bar, the hapless Cal is taken on as wingman and protege to handsome, thirtysomething player Jacob Palmer (Ryan Gosling). In an effort to help Cal get over his wife and start living his life, Jacob opens Cal’s eyes to the many options before him: flirty women, manly drinks and a sense of style that can’t be found at Supercuts or The Gap. Cal and Emily aren’t the only ones looking for love in what might be all the wrong places: Cal’s 13-year-old son, Robbie (Jonah Bobo), is crazy about his 17-year-old babysitter, Jessica (Analeigh Tipton), who harbors a crush on Cal. And despite Cal’s makeover and his many new conquests, the one thing that can’t be made over is his heart, which seems to keep leading him back to where he began.”
