It's about a sweet guy (played by Jason Segel) who is crushed when his actress girlfriend (Bell) dumps him, and does everything he can to get over her, with some disastrous results.
Music:
Hilary McRae — Through These Walls
This 21-year-old singer/songwriter explores themes of love and heartbreak on her debut album. She explains that "the album talks about everything that can come along with being in a romantic relationship. From the good nerves and butterflies in the beginning, to the positive changes that can happen from having that wonderful person in your life, to the intense emotions you feel when things don't work out as you had planned." The first single Every Day (When Will You Be Mine) can be seen here
