It's Not Porn. It's Just Naughty.
Once upon a time, Evelyn Anders found true love. It was a pity she was already married. Now 15 years later, she's looking for it again - and her husband has one last chance. A modern day twist on an ancient taboo, the movie "Love a la Carte" is an honest comedy about cheating and the incredibly painfully funny predicaments some couples go through in order to keep their struggling marriage together. As Evelyn muses, "Am I having second thoughts? Even Mother Theresa had doubts about her man."For all Evelyn's husband Phil understands, his wife simply no longer has the same passion for him as he still does for her and it's clashing madly with his basic instinct. By all accounts, the vow he agreed to in his 20's has broken down in a heap of mess now that he nears his 40's. Phil believes he's doing all the things a good husband should do to nourish his marriage but in his view, there's no return on his investment. His closest confidante Gene, who survived his turn at infidelity, urges him with advice on how to improve his relationship with Evelyn. "I know one good thing about being faithful. I sleep like a monkey flying baby," he says.Despite the warnings, Phil has run out of patience and becomes determined to find satisfaction for this one part of his life that his wife Evelyn no longer provides. Unlike so many famous men who become the fodder of tabloids and talk shows because of their adultery, Phil creatively justifies his reasons for sex outside his marriage with help from a marital dating website called "Love a la Carte." In the style of first person narrative he offers the honest answers those other famous philanderers never provided: "Everyone has an excuse. I do."Now that social networking can bring the world to your fingertips while the person closest to you is so far away, Phil discovers other married people just like him traipsing in dalliances. He eventually meets his kindred spirit in the female form of Angela. She is the perfect other woman, a former professional cheerleader and craves what Phil craves. The only problem with their perfect shallow union Phil worries to her is, "don't let me think I'm in love."Meanwhile, Evelyn has been going on her own self-awareness journey and re-examining everything in her marriage with the help of the most important men in her life: Abraham Lincoln, Black Jesus and Every Guy-that-ever-wanted-to-get-into-her-pants. The lines between reality and fantasy blur, but there is one man tied to both her and her husband that holds the key to her finding a reason to stay married. Evelyn confesses "Men are pigs and I've got swine flu."Ultimately the alpha-male power surge "Love a la Carte" provides to Phil's ego corrupts him and leads to a crisis. The results of his actions and the women he has encountered in his life forces him to reexamine his fraught pursuit of extramarital 'happy-penis' and confront the woman he told "I do." In the end, Phil finally learns the shocking reasons why he's not the only one he knows searching for "Love a la Carte."
