Adam Rothenberg Movies
A specialist at playing sweet-natured husbands and boyfriends, model-cum-actor Adam Rothenberg was born in Tenafly, NJ, and formally trained in New York theater, enjoying roles in on and off-Broadway productions including A Streetcar Named Desire, Birdy, and Danny and the Deep Blue Sea. Rothenburg broke through to international recognition as an on-camera star in 2008 with three roles: that of Katie Holmes' blue-collar husband in the female buddy comedy Mad Money (2008), that of Carter -- a young man who sets out with his brother on a road trip to find their estranged dad -- in the Mariah Carey vehicle Tennessee, and, on the small screen, the role of Augie, the man-Friday of a psychically counseled soulmate seeker on the CBS series The Ex List. ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide- 2008
A successful and single thirty-something named Bella Bloom embarks on a tireless quest to track down her soul mate after a bachelorette-party psychic informs her that she has already met "the one," despite failing to realize it during their initial encounter. According to the psychic at her sister Daphne's bachleorette bash, Bella has already met her future husband. But all hope isn't lost, because she still has a whole year to track him down. Should she fail to find him in one year's time, however, Bella is doomed to spend the rest of her life alone. Thankfully has a supportive army of friends to assist her in the search; friends like Augie, an endearing pal who has always been there to listen to Bella's tales of romantic woe. Bella's childhood friend Vivian is game for the hunt as well, as is her wry and perpetually unemployed pal Cyrus. Though Bella is reluctant to buy into the psychic's theory at first, she soon witnesses an event that convinces her without question that she needs to start searching fast. Now, with a little help from her friends, Bella will track down every man she has dated, befriended, or casually encountered over the years in order to avoid becoming a lonely and embittered spinster. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
