    In the style of the screwball comedies of the 1930s and 1940s, I Love Trouble depicts the developing romance of two rival reporters who reluctantly fall for each other while competing for a major scoop. Old hand Peter Brackett (Nick Nolte) and aspiring newcomer Sabrina Peterson (Julia Roberts) first meet when they are both assigned to cover a mysterious train crash. The pair immediately develops a connection despite their professional rivalry, and they decide to work together. Sensing something fishy about the crash, they look deeper and are soon fighting to expose a wide-ranging conspiracy, while also struggling to outmaneuver and out-charm each other along the way. Co-creators Charles Shyer and Nancy Meyers, who previously found success harking back to 1940s comedy in Father of the Bride, borrow heavily from His Girl Friday, Bringing Up Baby, and other screwball classics.

    October 21, 2002: Remember that tense scene in ''North By Northwest'' when Robert Thornhill tosses his initialed matchbook cover down to Eve to alert her to his presence and her danger? That scene is mimicked in ''I Love Trouble'' with a toss of Nick Nolte's wedding band to his new bride, Julia Roberts, recently acquired at a Las Vegas wedding chapel where the couple faked a marriage to outflank pursuers who are hot on their trail as they uncover a chemical company plot to foist cancer causing milk on an unwitting public. The film artfully blends suspense and comedy as these two big ego reporters from competing papers spire to out-scoop each other throughout the film's first half, to eventually join forces as their very lives are in increasing danger. As the film's danger and suspense increases, our two protagonists seem to blossom out of their separate and very independent egos that drive their competitive urges into a union of necessity if they are to survive, and finally a union of love as they discover the joys of being a flower in the garden rather than summer buds unable to bloom in the proper season. As one would expect with such a classic plot that hearkens back to not only ''North by Northwest'' but the ''Thin Man'' series, Nick saves Julia, the chemical company scheme is thwarted, and all is well. The film is beautifully made with lots of dark, atmospheric scenes; the acting is top rate; the suspense works; and the comic antagonism between our protagonists is delightful. To bad Nolte and Roberts did not make a few sequels. They would have made a great modern Nick and Nora Charles.
