Prepare to be enchanted this Valentine’s Day when the gloriously romantic cult hit of 2012, Ruby Sparks, leaps onto Blu-ray and DVD on 11 February, 2013 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment.
Calvin (Paul Dano - Looper, Little Miss Sunshine) is a young novelist who achieved phenomenal success early in his career but who is now struggling with the double whammy of writer’s block and a stagnant love life.
A breakthrough comes, though, when he listens to his dreams and, apparently completely out of the blue, creates the eponymous Ruby who starts to fuel his professional life and his romantic fantasies.
However, when Calvin finds Ruby (Zoe Kazan - It’s Complicated, Revolutionary Road) actually cooking him breakfast one morning, he must face the fact that his wildest dreams have somehow become a living, breathing person.
The quirkiest and most original romantic comedy of 2012, this tale of all-empowering love features a stellar supporting cast including Annette Bening (The Kids Are Alright, American Beauty) as his hippy mother Gertrude, Antonio Banderas (Puss In Boots, The Skin I Live In) as Calvin’s misunderstood stepdad Mort, Steve Coogan (Tropic Thunder, Alan Partridge) as fellow author Landon Tharp and Elliot Gould (TV’s Friends, Ocean’s Eleven) as his long-suffering but supportive therapist.
Written by the supremely talented Kazan and directed by the creative team behind the acclaimed and similarly whimsical Little Miss Sunshine, Ruby Sparks is breathtakingly sweet, original and hilarious and the perfect answer to all your Valentine’s Day prayers!
