"We really don't know each other at all..." Signature Entertainment in the UK has unveiled an official trailer for an indie romantic comedy titled 10 Things We Should Do Before We Break Up. The title is a direct reference to a part of the plot, but it's also a bit too similar to 10 Things I Hate About You to be considered original. Christina Ricci plays Abigail, a single mother of two who meets a man named Ben at a bar. They jokingly come up with a list of things to do before their imagined breakup, knowingly full well they’ll never even start a relationship. But when the joke turns in to a one-night stand that brings a pregnancy, things gets a whole lot more complicated. Co-starring Hamish Linklater, with Lindsey Broad, Mia Sinclair Jenness, Brady Jenness, Katia Winter, Jon Abrahams, and Scott Adsit. This looks charming, right? Official...
