The Next Best Thing Movie
Abbie Reynolds (Madonna) is a 30-year-old yoga instructor whose years go never to return. All her efforts to succeed in business and find her significant other are still in vain. The only soul mate with a shoulder to cry on is her best childhood friend, Robert Whittaker (Rupert Everett). He is a successful landscaper and a bright, witty, responsive person who can always help by word and deed. He would be a perfect match for Abbie if he weren't a gay. However, their friendly relations take a different twist when, after drinking too many cocktails one night, they black out and can't remember what happened between them, but Abbie soon turns up pregnant. Will they find a way out of this delicate situation?
