Wasn't this already done?


This looks suspiciously similar to something I saw on cable. I can't recall the actors. I think it was an indie pic also.

A lot of movies have been done before especially in this day. Seems like almost every other movie that comes out is a remake.

Apparently 96% of all movies released in the last two years were either remakes, reboots, or adaptations...And that's an actual, factual statistic.

was it called breaking upwards?
it is strange because i believe this film actually DID come out before breaking upwards or at least the same time. i think its just a coincidence. ive seen both and personally liked the way the freebie was done better.

i'm sure there was a dog in here

It's also borderline "Indecent Proposal" with Demi and Woody... http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107211/

It's not even close to Indecent Proposal, except for a married couple having sex outside the marriage. If that's what you call similar, there's probably 100 films that fit.

The 80's wanted so badly to be the future. 2010 is the future.

I agree with kdmacd - he/she did type "borderline" and some critics did use that example too. Indecent Proposal has a better ending, imo.

I kept on being reminded of Y.P.F. although the 2 movies were not at all alike except for a theme of sexual disinterest.
