About This Item
Hugh Grant (Notting Hill) is simply brilliant in the comedy hit About a Boy, based on the best-selling book by Nick Hornby. Will Freeman (Grant) is a good-looking, smooth-talking bachelor whose primary goal in life is avoiding any kind of responsibility. When he invents an imaginary son in order to meet attractive single mothers, Will gets a hilarious lesson about life from a bright, but hopelessly geeky, 12-year-old named Marcus. Now, as Will struggles to teach Marcus the art of being cool, Marcus teaches Will that you're never too old to grow up. Co-starring Rachel Weisz (The Mummy) and Toni Collette (Little Miss Sunshine), About a Boy is an irresistible romantic comedy that Time Magazine calls 'smart, funny and winsome'.
