This 2012 David O. Russell-directed flick, based on the novel of the same name by Matthew Quick, tells the story of a former teacher who, after spending four years in a mental institution, moves back in with his mother and tries to reconcile with his ex-wife. Bradley Cooper & Jennifer Lawrence star in the lead roles, with Robert De Niro, Jacki Weaver, Julia Stiles, and Chris Tucker playing supporting parts.
In "Silver Linings Playbook," the latest film from David O. Russell ("The Fighter"), People magazine's reigning "Sexiest Man Alive," Bradley Cooper will show audiences another, more complicated side. Rachel Dodes has details on Lunch Break.
