Sarah Pierce (Kate Winslet) is a former campus feminist and academic who is now a reluctant homemaker and mother in an upper-middle class suburb of Boston. Feeling stifled and aimless in her role as a mother, Sarah views her young daughter Lucy as a nuisance (describing her as an “unknowable little person”), and it doesn’t help that Lucy refuses to do almost anything Sarah asks, such as get into strollers or carseats. Sarah feels out of place around the tedious and judgemental Stepford-like mothers she encounters on a daily basis at the local playground. Her marriage has become loveless, and she catches her husband masturbating to online pornography with a pair of panties over his face. Her reaction is to buy an eye-catching red bathing suit from a department store catalog to get the attention of Brad.

Brad Adamson (Patrick Wilson) is a former college football player who’s married to Kathy (Jennifer Connelly), a documentary filmmaker. The couple have a young son, Aaron. Brad is depressed and frustrated, unable to deal with his non-dominant position in the relationship, as his wife is the breadwinner and he is a stay-at-home father who has failed the bar exam twice. Each day, he leaves home with the pretense of going to the library to study, but in actuality he watches skateboarders at the park. He joins a policeman’s touch football team at the urging of a friend, Larry Hedges (Noah Emmerich), a disgraced former police officer.

Early in the story, Sarah and Brad meet on the playground, where Sarah suggests they hug to shock the mothers nearby. Brad ups the ante and plants a kiss on her lips. While the other mothers freak out and take their children away from the playground, it’s apparent that Brad and Sarah have discovered a sudden attraction. Weeks pass before Sarah musters the gumption to take Lucy to the pool, where she knows Brad and Aaron often go. Over the course of several regular visits, they get to know each other while their children also bond. After Brad, Sarah and the children are caught in a rainstorm at the pool, they rush to Sarah’s house. The children are already asleep, and are put to bed upstairs for a nap. While Sarah dries their beach towels so that they can sit on the furniture in their soaked clothes, Brad mills about the house and comes upon a book of poetry in Sarah’s study. He finds a picture of himself, shirtless and in the pool wedged in the book. Realizing that Sarah has feelings for him, he surprises her in the basement with another kiss. Brad and Sarah have a moment alone in the basement at Sarah’s home, where they kiss and have sex in the laundry room. Read more
