Accidental Love stars Jessica Biel as small town waitress Alice, who accidentally gets a nail lodged in her head, which causes unpredictable behaviour, leading her to Washington DC. Sparks fly when she meets a clueless young senator who takes up her cause – but what happens when love interferes with what you stand for?
Starring Jake Gyllenhaal as Senator Howard Birdwell, plus James Marsden, Paul Reubens, Catherine Keener, Kirstie Alley and James Brolin, the title is appalling, but get past that and we have a very intriguing idea, here. Not sure if I give a damn who she might end up with, though.
And for some reason, director David O Russell has called himself Stephen Greene. Is this the new Alan Smithee?
