Movies - Serendipity

Serendipity is a 2001
romantic movie
, starring Kate Beckinsale
and John Cusack
. It is written by Marc Klein and directed by Peter Chelsom.

Plot

  • Tagline: Can once in a lifetime happen twice?
On a bustling shopping day in winter, Jonathan Trager meets Sara Thomas when both try to buy the same pair of gloves. Two strangers amid the masses in NYC, their paths collide in the mad holiday rush as they feel a mutual attraction. Despite the fact that each is involved in another relationship, Jonathan and Sara spend the evening travelling Manhattan. But when the night reaches its inevitable end, the two are forced into determining some kind of next step. When the smitten Jonathan suggests an exchange of phone numbers, Sara balks and proposes an idea that will allow fate to take control of their future. If they are meant to be together, she tells him, they will find their way back into one another's life.

The majority of the film takes place over the ensuing ten years, and consists largely of repeated "almost coincedences" where the two romantic leads almost, but not quite, meet. (One character is seen walking in to one door of a building at the exact same instant as the other character walks out of a different door in the same building, etc).

The film is named after the real-life restaurant "Serendipity III" (see External Links, below) which is featured in the film as the site of the couple's first date.
