Wong Kar Wai's first Hollywood movie has all the stylized beauty and ennui that one would expect from a film by the Hong Kong auteur, but it's also a little too inspired by script habits of films past. Singer Norah Jones tries her hand at acting, lending a refreshingly somber note as leading lady Elizabeth, whose path crosses with New York diner owner Jeremy (Jude Law), when she goes there looking for answers to who her boyfriend is two-timing her with. Jeremy and Elizabeth begin to connect over late-night chatter and blueberry pie, but the heartbroken Elizabeth makes the decision to take a road trip. On route, she meets characters such as Arnie (David Strat-hairn), who can't get over his wife Sue-Lynn (Rachel Weisz) leaving him, and Leslie (Natalie Portman), a cunning professional gambler. Meanwhile, Elizabeth keeps in touch with Jeremy via postcards.
