01 / THE STORY
A little about the film.
Soon after their wedding, John and Jenny Grogan (Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston) escape the brutal Michigan winters and relocate to a cottage in South Florida, where they are hired as reporters for competing newspapers. At ''The Palm Beach Post'', Jenny immediately receives prominent front-page assignments, while at the ''South Florida Sun-Sentinel'', John finds himself writing obituaries and two-paragraph articles about mundane news like a fire at the local garbage dump.
