À propos de ce film

Arriving at work one morning, Helen discovers that she had been unjustifiably sacked from her PR job. She is returning home when an amazing thing happens, time reverses itself for a few seconds and a second version of herself is created. In one reality Helen catches the tube train, meets James and arrives home to find her loathsome Lothario lover Gerry cheating on her with his ex-girlfriend Lydia. In the other reality, Helen misses the tube train, gets mugged, goes to hospital and eventually arrives home to find Gerry alone in the shower. The two realities move forward in tandem; in one Helen leaves Gerry and forms a happy, new, loving relationship with James; in the other Helen's life becomes more and more wretched as she takes on two jobs to support her cheating boyfriend as he supposedly writes his novel but in fact carries on a torrid affair with Lydia.

I love this movie and I was wanting to buy it but obviously you're only giving the option to rent it. Id like to know why we can't buy it.

Brilliant movie - just shows how the 'what ifs' in life could be. I would also like to know why the film is for rental only?
