Down With Love was quite funny and a smart story, but it took me three tries to really finish watching the whole movie. I fell asleep twice, and I did find it a little too slow. Also the colors absolutely fit the story, but they are not my kind of taste. And I didn't like the actors that much. But it all fit the story, and there's nothing wrong with the movie, it's just not really my thing.

SYNOPSIS from Hollywood.com
Barbara hits 1962 New York City with her new book, "Down With Love," a pre-feminist manifesto saying "no" to love and "yes" to career, empowerment--and sex. As Barbara's revolutionary tome rockets to the top of the best-seller charts, she becomes the target of ace journalist Catcher "Catch" Block, ladies' man/ man's man/ man about the town, who is determined to take her down. Catch's best friend and boss, the neurotic and lovesick Peter McMannus, tries to rein in his star writer, while haplessly pursuing the object of his affections, Vicki Hiller, Barbara's brilliant and feisty editor. Vicki plays tough in a man's world, which includes her old style chauvinist boss, Theodore Banner.
