A woman finds herself drafted into the battle of finding the perfect man in this
romantic comedy.
Sarah Nolan (
Diane Lane) is a kindergarten teacher in her mid-thirties who is still dealing with the emotional aftermath of her divorce eight months ago. While her sisters,
Christine (
Ali Hillis) and
Carol (
Elizabeth Perkins), both think
Sarah needs to start dating again,
Sarah herself isn't so sure.
Carol decides to force the issue by posting
Sarah's photo and profile on an Internet dating site, and soon a number of seemingly eligible bachelors are sending her e-mails in hopes of a date. However, nearly every man she meets turns out to be a loser, with the exception of
Jake (
John Cusack), who is smart, good looking, and even brings along a dog for their walk in the park (though he doesn't tell her the pooch was borrowed for the occasion). However,
Sarah also makes the acquaintance of
Bob (
Dermot Mulroney), the divorced father of one of her students, and she finds herself having to choose between two potentially worthwhile men. Meanwhile,
Sarah's widowed father,
Bill (
Christopher Plummer), decides to give Internet dating a try, and lands himself a new steady in
Dolly (
Stockard Channing).
Must Love Dogs is based on the best-selling novel of the same title by
Claire Cook.
