Silver Linings Playbook: It is possible to make a new start?

  

Pat and Tiffany wish to start from scratch. It's a drama, comedy and romance movie written and directed by David O. Russell (Fighter) which had been called for 19 nominations (Best Movie, Best Actor for Bradley Cooper for the role of Pat Salatnao and Best Actress for Jennifer Lawrence for the role of Tiffany Maxwell.)

They weren't pampered by life: Pat is bipolar and Tiffany lost her husband after 3 years of marriage. Both of us are trying to put their life in order. Tiffany will help him to get his wife back and Pat will help her for a prestigious dance competition. Through those dance trainings the two characters are beginning to discover their personalities by going beyond the prejudices and apperances. (Tiffany is supposed to be an easy girl and Pat a lunatic.) 

The duet is very annoying at the beginning of the movie: they're always screaming on each other but progressively new links are arising. Silver Linings Playbook is a breath of fresh air because this movie isn't a common comedy: through all the movie heavy atmosphere is present and at the end with the funny and beautiful dance scenes lightness is appearing. 

The most surprising is the duet Cooper/Lawrence and their wondeful performance all along. The movie is very creative and doesn't fall into clichés. I'm not going to tell you everything about the movie to let you discover it by yourself. ENJOY !
