The Rebound
Release date: 23 July 2010
Running time: 94 mins
Director: Bart Freundlich
Starring: Justin Bartha, Catherine Zeta-Jones, John Schneider, Kate Jennings Grant
Catherine Zeta-Jones plays a single mother falling for a much younger man in this age-difference rom-com.
After discovering that her husband has cheated on her, Sandy (Catherine Zeta Jones) packs up and moves to New York for a fresh start with her two young children. One thing she's not prepared for, however, is a return to the dating game after years as a wife and mother. Handsome Trevor (John Schneider) has potential, but Sandy still has trust issues and pent-up anger to contend with. When Sandy employs a 25-year-old male nanny named Aram (Justin Bartha) to look after the kids, romance is the last thing on her mind. But gradually she finds herself drawn to this sensitive and much younger man. When it starts to get serious, Sandy's friends think that she's just on the rebound and will soon move on to a proper grown-up man. But could Sandy's fling become the real thing?
