Description
Former highschool teacher Pat Solatano has lost everything - his house, his job, and his wife. After spending eight months in a psychiatric ward on a plea bargain, Pat is determined to rebuild his life, remain positive and reunite with his wife - even though she has a restraining order against him. All Pat's parents want is for him to get back on his feet - and to share their family's obsession with the Philadelphia Eagles football team. When Pat meets Tiffany, the equally troubled sister of his friend's wife, she offers to help Pat get in touch with his wife, but only if he'll be her partner in a freestyle dance competition. As their deal plays out, an unexpected bond begins to form between them, and silver linings appear in both of their lives. David O. Russell (THE FIGHTER, FLIRTING WITH DISASTER) directs an all-star cast in the feel-good comedy of the year.
