Quote:
Down with Love is a 2003 romantic comedy film. It was directed by Peyton Reed and stars Renée Zellweger, Ewan McGregor, Sarah Paulson and David Hyde Pierce.

The story follows a woman who advocates female independence in combat with a lothario and the patriarchal, even male chauvinist society of the 1950s and early 1960s. The film is a pastiche of the sex comedies that were popular in the era in which Down with Love is set, in particular the three films that starred Doris Day and Rock Hudson: 1959's Pillow Talk, 1961's Lover Come Back and 1964's Send Me No Flowers.

I can't find my original review, but Down With Love is a charming throwback to the ROM-COM's of Doris Day and Rock Hudson, with David Hyde Pierce in the Tony Randall role (not to mention the actual Tony Randall). *A*


Bonus: Here's Mick LaSalle's review with more details than my memory can conjure up, and the original trailer:
