Confessions of a Shopaholic


Confessions of a Shopaholic
(Movie Tie-in Edition)

Sophie Kinsella's first book in the Shopaholic series has now been adapted into a major motion picture, due for release on February 13, 2009 and stars Hugh Dancy as Luke Brandon, alongside Isla Fisher as Becky Bloomwood.

Sypnosis

Rebecca Bloomwood (Isla Fisher) is a sweet and charming New York City girl who has a tiny, little problem that is rapidly turning into a big problem: shes hopelessly addicted to shopping and drowning in a sea of debt. While Rebecca has dreams of working for a top fashion magazine, she can't quite get her foot in the door that is, until she snags a job as an advice columnist for a new financial magazine published by the same company.

Overnight, her column becomes hugely popular, turning her into an overnight celebrity, But when her compulsive shopping and growing debt issues threaten to destroy her love life and derail her career, she struggles to keep it all from spiralling out of control and is ultimately forced to re-evaluate what's really important in life.

Co-starring is Hugh Dancy as the Head and creator of a successful PR company, 'Brandon Communications' who repeatedly invites Becky to conferences, and even helps her out when she needs to borrow some money. When Becky begins to realize she has a crush on Luke, after he takes her shopping, she discovers he has a girlfriend, Sacha de Bonneville. He is also known to be the thirty-first richest bachelor in the country.
