THE
STORY
OF
US,
a
sweet
romantic
comedy
featuring
solid
performances
by
Bruce
Willis
and
Michelle
Pfeiffer,
examines
the
difficulty
of
preserving
marriage
in
America
and
the
dual
lives
married
couples
often
must
endure.
The
"us"
are
Ben
and
Katie
Jordan
(Willis
and
Pfeiffer),
a
professional,
and
by
all
appearances
happily
married,
suburban
couple
with
two
well-adjusted
children,
Erin
and
Josh;
the
"story,"
however,
is
that
their
marriage
is
actually
crumbling
at
an
alarming
rate,
a
truth
they
endeavor
to
hide
from
their
loving
kids.
Luckily,
they
can
postpone
the
admission
of
dissolution
because
of
the
children’s
departure
to
summer
camp,
with
the
possibility
that
things
will
work
out
in
the
ensuing
months.
However,
as
time
passes,
tempers
flare,
Ben
moves
out,
Katie
meets
a
charming
divorcé
at a
cooking
class,
and,
as
the
inevitable
return
of
Erin
and
Josh
closes
to a
week,
there
is
no
apparent
hope
of
resolution.
Will
the
two
be
forced
to
present
their
kids
with
an
awful
fact
of
life,
or
can
they
rediscover
their
passion
for
each
other
and
renew
their
love?
