TRAILER!: James L. Brooks' Philly-shot How Do You Know

POSTED: Monday, August 16, 2010, 7:17 PM

Filed Under: Movies trailer!

Remember when everyone was all like, "OMReeseWitherspoonOwenWilsonPaulRuddJackNicholson!" This is why. How Do You Know, in theaters December 17, looks like your average James L. Brooksian-comedy — family drama, love, loss, a couple sight gags and lots of heart — that can be either insta-classics (Broadcast News, Terms of Endearment) or can kind of suck (Spanglish, I'll Do Anything). So really the only thing we learn from this trailer — featuring Reese Witherspoon as an ex-softball player who must choose between Washington National Owen Wilson or indicted, unemployed businessman Paul Rudd — is that a) Delancey Street can look like both New York City and Washington, D.C., b) Reese Witherspoon will probably end up with Paul Rudd in the end and c) James Brooks hates proper punctuation. But hey! Look! It's Herc! RELATED >> James L. Brooks' Philly-shot movie has a title, release date
