Thirtysomething photographer David (Stephen Mangan) has for some time been happily dating Lisa (Susan Lynch)… but increasingly he’s dreaming of Nina (The War Zone’s Lara Belmont), a tempestuous free spirit who seems to represent everything his loving, stable girlfriend is not. So what’s a man to do?

From this all-too-familiar premise first-time writer/director Spector has crafted a funny, sad, and above all discomfortingly honest look at the male gender’s seemingly infinite capacity for self-deception – superbly performed by a talented ensemble cast, and directed with admirable economy and confidence. This well-crafted British independent might, if you’re a bloke, have you looking awkwardly at your shoes and wondering how someone got inside your head to find this stuff out….

From the creative team behind the smash indie success, MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING, comes I HATE VALENTINES DAY - a new romantic comedy starring Nia Vardalos, John Corbett, and a hilarious supporting cast featuring Judah Friedlander, Zoe Kazan and Rachel Dratch. Meet Genevieve (Vardalos). The owner of a flower shop in the heart of Brooklyn, NY and a romantic with a unique take on the dating game. Genevieve lives by a strict five date rule so she doesn’t get dumped and never gets hurt. Then she meets Greg (Corbett). He’s good looking, funny and new to town, and before they know it, both are falling for each other. Will this new romance cause Genevieve to reconsider her philosophy of love?
