How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003 Donald Petrie)

A dreadful film, one of those that Matthew McConaughey had to start turning down in order to start being offered the good parts, e.g. Mud. He's reteamed with Kate Hudson from Fool's Gold. Performances look like they've been edited together, full of fake donkey laughing. Talking of donkeys, it was written by three - that tell-tale credit - Kristen Buckley & Brian Regan and Burr Steers - even the source novel was co-authored.

With Kathryn Hahn, Annie Parisse, Adam Goldberg, Bebe Neuwirth.

Photographed by John Bailey, music by David Newman (brother of Tom, son of Alfred). Filmed in NYC and Toronto. The bridge they end up on is the Manhattan Bridge, connecting the south of the island to Brooklyn.
