Leap Year

When her four-year anniversary passes without a marriage proposal, apartment stager Anna Brady (Amy Adams) decides enough is enough. Investing in the ancient Irish tradition that allows women to propose to men on Leap Day, Anna decides to follow her cardiologist boyfriend Jeremy (Adam Scott) from Boston to Dublin and get down on one knee herself. It’s just what her wayward-but-well-intentioned father, Jack (John Lithgow), would want her to do. Simple. Easy. But when unreliable airplanes, inclement weather and bad luck leave the controlling Anna stranded on the other side of Ireland, she must enlist the help of the carefree-but-surly chef Declan (Matthew Goode) to get her across the country. And as Anna and Declan bicker across the Emerald Isle, they discover something they should have known all along: the road to love can take you to very unexpected places. (Universal Pictures US)
