Synopsis

Comic genius Simon Pegg [Hot Fuzz, Run Fat Boy Run] joins an all-star cast, including Kirsten Dunst [Spider-Man trilogy, Bring It On, Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind], Megan Fox [Transformers], Gillian Anderson [The X-Files, Last King of Scotland], Danny Huston [The Constant Gardener] and Jeff Bridges [The Big Lebowski, K-Pax, Iron Man] in an adaptation of Toby Young’s best-selling book.

How To Lose Friends & Alienate People chronicles Sidney Young’s descent from promising journalist to dismal failure at New York’s most prestigious magazine. He cuts a swathe through Manhattan for all the wrong reasons and his bad manners and vulgar pranks lead to monumental mishaps with hilarious consequences, until finally and improbably he wins the heart of his true love.
