I Love You, Man (2009)

Welcome to 'Don't You Want Me?' - a podcast series taking a lighthearted look at the most relatable, intriguing and dysfunctional relationships in film. 

In this episode, we’re freeloading rosemary flatbread paninis with 2009’s bass-slapping bromance I LOVE YOU, MAN. Directed and co-written by John Hamburg - who had had huge success penning the scripts for Meet the Parents and Zoolander - this movie was the third collaboration for Jason Segel and Paul Rudd, who had previously worked together on the films Knocked Up and Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Tonight we’ll be discussing the unlikely connection between Sydney and Peter. Does this relationship touch on a kind of rush lots of us look for in our lives? Or should we be content with a summer salad and Chocolat?
