50
FIRST
DATES
pairs
Adam Sandler
with
Drew
Barrymore
in
this
romantic
comedy
about
the
power
of
love
and
short-term
memory
loss
in
Hawaii.
Henry
Roth
(Sandler),
the
local
marina
veterinarian,
only
dates
tourists
because
he's
afraid
of
commitment--that
is,
until
he
meets
Lucy
(Barrymore).
Unfortunately,
Lucy
lost
her
short-term
memory
months
ago
in a
car
accident,
and
for
her,
each
day
is
October
the
13th.
She
follows
the
same
routine
every
day--breakfast
at
the
same
restaurant,
pineapple-picking
with
her
dad,
and
eventually
bed
time,
where
sleep
wipes
away
her
short-term
memory.
Henry,
however,
refuses
to
be
forgotten,
and
as
his
puppy
love
matures,
he
embarks
on a
quest
to
restore
her
memory,
or
at
least
be a
part
of
her
everyday
routine.
But
vying
for
Lucy's
attention
isn't
always
easy.
Sandler
explores
various
neophytic
approaches
before
making
a
video
for
Lucy
to
watch
every
morning,
reminding
her
of
who
she
is
and
what
she's
doing.
The
film
includes
a
trademark
Sandler
ballad
as
Henry
serenades
Lucy
with
his
ukulele
and
a
series
of
familiar
salacious
puns.
Rob
Schneider
plays
Henry's
best
friend,
a
goofy
native
stoner
whose
physical hijinks
earn
numerous
laughs,
and
a
cameo
by
Dan Akroyd
as
Lucy's
doctor
rounds
out
the
cast.
