About Movie:
Crazy, Stupid, Love. is an American romantic comedy directed by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa, with a screenplay by Dan Fogelman. The film stars Steve Carell, Ryan Gosling, Julianne Moore, Emma Stone, John Carroll Lynch, Marisa Tomei, and Kevin Bacon.
Originally developed under the working title Untitled Marital Crisis Comedy, Fogelman based the script on his own experiences and specifically wrote it with Steve Carell in mind. After Carell read the script, he quickly joined the project, which Warner Bros. acquired for $2.5 million in December 2009.
Production began shortly after, with Emma Stone and Kevin Bacon being among the actors who joined the cast in early 2010. The film also marked the first project produced by Carell’s Carousel Productions.
Filming took place over 53 days in and around Los Angeles, with key locations including the Westfield Century City mall, the Hollywood Hills, and several schools in the area. The original cut of the film was three hours long before being edited down for release.
Crazy, Stupid, Love. premiered in the United States on July 29, 2011, distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures. It grossed $145 million worldwide against its $50 million budget and was praised by critics. Ryan Gosling earned a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy for his performance.
