Spend a Few Minutes with ‘I Give It a Year’

From the writer of Borat and the producers of Bridget Jones’s Diary comes I Give It a Year starring Rose Byrne and Rafe Spall as an (un)happily married couple who seem to be in a doomed relationship, at least according to their friends. Written and directed by Dan Mazer, I Give It a Year will be released by Magnolia Pictures on iTunes/On Demand on July 3, 2013 followed by a theatrical release on August 9, 2013.

The cast also includes Anna Faris, Simon Baker, Stephen Merchant, Minnie Driver, Jason Flemyng, Tim Key, and Olivia Coleman.

The Plot: Since they met at a party, ambitious high-flyer Nat (Rose Byrne) and struggling novelist Josh (Rafe Spall) have been deliriously happy despite their differences. Josh is a thinker, Nat’s a doer, but the spark between them is undeniable.

Their wedding is a dream come true, but no one — family, friends and even the minister who marries them — is convinced that they will last. Josh’s ex-girlfriend, Chloe (Anna Faris), and Nat’s handsome American client Guy (Simon Baker) could offer attractive alternatives.

With their first anniversary approaching, neither wants to be the first to give up, but will they make it?
