A woman finds herself attempting to foil one office romance while debating if she should take a chance on another in this
romantic comedy.
Lucy Kelton (
Sandra Bullock) is a top-flight attorney who has risen to the position of Chief Legal Counsel for one of New York's leading commercial real estate firms, the Wade Corporation. However,
Lucy's job has one significant drawback --
George Wade (
Hugh Grant), the eccentric and remarkably self-centered head of the firm.
George seems entirely incapable of making a decision without
Lucy's advice, whether it actually involves a legal matter or not, and while she's fond of
George, being at his beck and call 24 hours a day has brought her to the end of her rope. In a moment of anger,
Lucy gives her two weeks notice, and
George reluctantly accepts, under one condition --
Lucy has to hire her own replacement. After extensive research,
Lucy picks
June Carter (
Alicia Witt), a Harvard Law graduate determined to make a career for herself.
Lucy soon begins to suspect, however, that
June plans to hasten her rise up the corporate ladder by winning
George's hand, leaving
Lucy to wonder if she should warn
George about his beautiful but calculating new attorney -- and whether she should tell
George that she has finally realized she's in love with him.
Two Weeks Notice was written and directed by
Marc Lawrence, who had previously scripted two other box-office hits for
Sandra Bullock:
Miss Congeniality and
Forces of Nature.
