SHE'S THE ONE
Writer/director/star Edward Burns follows up his critically and popularly acclaimed feature debut The Brothers McMullen with another wry romantic comedy, SHE'S THE ONE, a story about two brothers and one thing that came between them. Mickey (Edward Burns) and Francis Fitzpatrick (Mike McGlone), each in his own fashion, have tried to live by their father's rule: "You've got to do what makes you happy first." Mickey thinks he's happy being a cab driver and living the life of a carefree bachelor -- that is, until he meets Hope (Maxine Bahns), a beautiful, free-spirited graduate student on her way to Paris. Francis thinks he's happy making a killing on Wall Street and being married to his vivacious college sweetheart (Jennifer Aniston) -- that is, until he takes up with Heather (Cameron Diaz), a stunning blonde from Mickey's past. When the two brothers' romantic problems converge in ways neither of them could have imagined, the old sibling rivalry turns into a battle royal. And, finally, the brothers realize that the lessons their well-meaning, but misguided, father taught them about happiness may not be the best advice about love.
