| | The Good GirlSynopsis: Jennifer Aniston is Justine, the title character of THE GOOD GIRL. Justine, though, is no longer a girl – she is grown up, married and longs to start a family. Without a doubt her husband, Phil loves her, but they have so far been unable to conceive, and Justine wonders if all the pot he smokes with his best friend Bubba might be the reason why. One day at work, Justine discovers something of a soul mate in Holden, a creative, passionate young man who represents a chance for Justine to escape into a new world of emotional and sexual awakening. But when the affair quickly moves from liberation to poisonous obsession, Justine finds herself ensnared in a chaotic web of blackmail, larceny and love. Is Justine ultimately a good girl? Can she make the right choice between her dependable husband and disturbed lover? Written by Mike White who also wrote The School Of Rock, and directed by Miguel Arteta (Chuck&Buck), THE GOOD GIRL gives Aniston the chance to create a character with the complexity of a present-day suburban Emma Bovary. Roger Ebert, one of the most influential movie critics in America, said of Jennifer Aniston in this romantic comedy, "Jennifer Aniston has at last decisively broken with her "Friends" image... It will no longer be possible to consider her in the same way." This Sundance Film Festival premiere features a (shockingly) non-glam Aniston as a bored store clerk – with a Southern accent no less! "A comedy of winning delicacy and heart. It's a smooth move for Jennifer Aniston."—Owen Gleiberman, ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY. Casts: Jennifer Aniston, Jake Gyllenhaal, John C. Reilly Duration : 90 minutes
