Distraught and... In this charming romantic comedy, British artist Colin Ware (COLIN FIRTH) discovers that his fiancée, Vera (MINNIE DRIVER), the love of his life, is going to marry another man. Distraught and despondent, he gets on a plane for America and ends up in the tiny town of Hope in New England. At first, Colin is depressed, but he soon finds more than a shoulder to cry on when his innkeepers introduce him to Mandy (HEATHER GRAHAM), a beautiful nurse. All's going well and Colin has almost forgotten his old flame… until Vera suddenly shows up with a surprise of her own. "Hope Springs" is about finding happiness where you least expect it. [More]

  • Hope Springs
  • HOPE SPRINGS is the charming romantic comedy starring Colin Firth (LOVE ACTUALLY), Heather Graham (ANGER MANAGEMENT), and Academy Award(R) nominee (1997 Best Supporting Actress, GOOD WILL HUNTING) Minnie Driver (RETURN TO ME). When artist Colin Ware (Firth) discovers the love of his life and fiancee Vera (Driver), a sexy, sophisticated vixen, is marrying another man, he flees to America and the sleepy New England village of Hope to bury himself in his art and soothe his tortured psyche. Soon he finds more than a shoulder to cry on when he meets Mandy (Graham), a beautiful free spirit who captures his heart -- until Vera suddenly shows up with the surprise of Colin's life. HOPE SPRINGS is a delightful and engaging comedy about finding happiness when you least expect it.

    Somehow it can't make the leap from an enjoyable light film to a movie to remember.
