Serendipity (2001 Peter Chelsom)

Extremely fanciful romantic meditation on Fate, written by Marc Klein (not much else than Mirror Mirror and A Good Year) - it could only end one way. With John Cusack (looking slightly dog-eared) with his then buddy Jeremy Piven; Kate Beckinsale, Eugene Levy as annoying Bloomingdales clerk. (Actually there is another end where snow covered Beckinsale develops pneumonia and dies.)

High key photography in New York and SF by John de Borman. Quite nippy editing by Christopher Greenbury (mainly comedies, through assisted Tariq Anwar on American Beauty).

A meet cute in Bloomingdales
Chelsom best known in this house probably for Funny Bones with Jerry Lewis and Lee Evans.
