One Day...
Twenty years. Two people.
'One Day' is an adaptation of the best-selling novel by David Nicholls, “One Day” charts an extraordinary relationship.
Emma (Academy Award nominee Anne Hathaway) and Dexter (Jim Sturgess) meet on the night of their college graduation – July 15th, 1988.
She is a working-class girl of principle and ambition who dreams of making the world a better place. He is a wealthy charmer who dreams that the world will be his playground. Dexter is a playboy, plain and simple. Handsome, successful, high-profile - a complete chick magnet and a total womanizer.
For the next two decades, every July 15th reveals to us how “Em” and “Dex” are faring, as their friendship ebbs and flows with the passing of the years. Through love and loss, heartbreak and success, hopes fulfilled and dreams shattered, they experience the grandeur of life. Somewhere along their journey, these two people realize that what they are searching and hoping for has been there for them all along.
It follows the lives of Emma and Dex for 20 years, offering a snapshot of one day each year. Sometimes they're together as friends, sometimes they're not.
'One Day' offers a snapshot of, you guessed it, one day in the lives of friends Emma and Dex - over a period of two decades. Some days are far more memorable than others, and the one Emma is referring to is definitely worth remembering...
When things go horribly wrong for Dexter, he automatically reaches out to Emma - even if they haven't talked for months. He may have a lot of casual flings (and one disastrous marriage), but he goes to the person that matters most when he needs real help (see: Emma).
Dexter: "If I could give you just one gift, do you know what it would be? Confidence. That or a scented candle."
Emma: "I love you, Dexter. I just don't like you anymore."
