A story for anyone with an appetite for love.
In a coffee shop in a tight-knit Oregon community a local professor Harry Stevenson (Freeman) witnesses love whipping up mischief among the town's residents. Among young and old, among both parents and lovers, among the sweet and the savage, among humans and even animals, Harry watches in awe as love mystifies, wounds, devastates, inspires and profoundly shapes the lives of everyone around him - including himself.
From the unlucky-in-love die-hard romantic coffee shop owner Bradley (Kinnear) who has a serial habit of looking for love in all the wrong places, including with his current wife Kathyrn (Selma Blair); to the edgy real estate agent Diana (Radha Mitchell) who is caught up in an affair with a married man (Billy Burke) with whom she shares an ineffable connection; to the beautiful young newcomer Chloe (Alexa Davalos) who defies fate in romancing the troubled Oscar (Toby Hemingway); to Harry himself, whose adoring wife (Jane Alexander) is looking to break through his wall of grief after the wrenching loss of a loved one.
All of these strands intertwine into one remarkable story in which no one can escape being bent, broken, befuddled, delighted and ultimately redeemed by love's inescapable spell.

Chick flick!
This is even more of a chick flick than Definitely, maybe. It has true love, babies, marriage, divorce, relationships, talking about relationships, talking about true love, Romeo and Juliet, talking about Romeo and Juliet having a relationship and more. Take your pocket pack of tissues.
Fortunately, if you're a bloke, it has lesbians, tits from every female under 35 and a bit of minge so you'll survive seeing it with your girlfriend.
The comedy, drama, romance movie Feast of love is directed by Robert Benton and stars Morgan Freeman, Greg Kinnear, Radha Mitchell.
