Some Kind of Beautiful

Some Kind of Beautiful (2015) is a romantic comedy by Tom Vaughan you can watch online on iFILM. Pierce Brosnan plays Richard Haig, a Cambridge English professor who quotes Oscar Wilde and beds his students instead of growing up.

His motto is simple: the only way to lose a temptation is to give in to it. Then his young American girlfriend Kate (Jessica Alba) announces she is pregnant, and Richard suddenly wants the family, the fatherhood, the whole respectable picture. One catch. He isn't in love with Kate at all. He's been quietly carrying a torch for her half-sister Olivia, played by Salma Hayek, and that single fact tangles everyone's lives.

With Malcolm McDowell and Marlee Matlin filling out the cast, this breezy British-American comedy leans entirely on Brosnan's gift for self-mockery, playing a clever man who is hopeless the moment feelings are involved. Light, charming, low-stakes. Stream Some Kind of Beautiful (2015) online on iFILM.
