A young, pretty art teacher, Lucy (adored by every male in her small home town), attempts to embark on an affair with her co-worker, married high-school football coach, Clint. Before it can eventuate he is sucked into a bottomless, zero-gravity hole in her living room floor. One by one all town members come to inspect, theorize about and try to remove Clint from the hole, and in doing so learn about his disloyalty to his wife. The movie is a bit like Being John Malkovich in its metaphysical satire. Written by kwedgwood@hotmail.com
This film tells the story of a beautiful woman in a small town, who is the centre of attention of all men because of her beauty. One day, the man she has a rendezvous with falls into a hole that mysteriously appears in her living room. She struggles to rescue her date, ad eventually the whole town knows about this mysterious hole.
The plot is a simple one, but "No Stranger Than Love" is actually quite entertaining. Alison Brie plays the beautiful woman who tries to ward off the many potential suitors, and she is so natural and charming while she does that. It is quite funny to see how numerous men try to win her heart, and it is even funnier that the hole just appears in her living room. Hilarious things happen in the film, but there is a touching message at the end. It is a sweet but different romantic comedy. I enjoyed watching it.
