When she hears of a renowned couple’s specialist (Steve Carell) in the small town of Great Hope Springs, she attempts to persuade her skeptical husband, a steadfast man of routine, to get on a plane for a week of marriage therapy. Just convincing the stubborn Arnold to go on the retreat is hard enough – the real challenge for both of them comes as they shed their bedroom hang-ups and try to re-ignite the spark that caused them to fall for each other in the first place.

Hope Springs (2012) | Review

Marriage In Real Life
Dice

I was under the impression that it floated and now you are telling me it springs? Whatever hope does, this movie attempts to tell a straightforward film about marriage with no bells, whistles, or twists. Oh, and lots of sex talk.
