Short description
As she reaches her mid-thirties and quits her lucrative job, singleton Olivia finds herself unsure about her future and her relationships with her successful and wealthy friends. She begins to envy the security of her richer friends and, although their lives may seem easier, Olivia's friends have their problems too: screenwriters Christine and Patrick are unable to collaborate on their latest project, Jane and Aaron have lost the romance in their relationship, and Franny and Matt have difficulties handling the demands of parenthood.
What's left behind the scenes
- The scene at the farmers' fair was filmed with the permission of the administration, but without hiring any extras. Many of the people shown on screen were ordinary customers and onlookers who didn't even realize that actresses Frances McDormand and Jennifer Aniston were among them. Nevertheless, a few paparazzi managed to sneak onto the fairgrounds in hopes of photographing Aniston.
- In accordance with Frances McDormand’s filming contract, which stipulated she had to return to her family in New York by a certain date, the last week of filming took place there. They mainly filmed her character at home and the scene where Jane hits her head on a glass door.
- Screenwriter Nicole Holofcener wrote the role of Christina specifically for Catherine Keener, and gave her the script to read before anyone else. Keener also helped her choose other actresses for the project.
- Simon McBurney, who played Aaron, was literally torn between Los Angeles, where filming took place, and London, where he was directing a play at a theater. He made 4 or 5 flights from the UK to the US, and spent a couple of days on set each time.
