The Good Girl

A married woman (Aniston) working in a discount store yearns for something more, including a family, but she's so far been unable to conceive with her husband (Reilly).

At work, she meets a creative but odd young man (Gyllenhaal) who thinks he's Holden Caulfield, the narrator from The Catcher in the Rye. Considering him her soulmate, she starts an passionate affair with him, but as it quickly progresses from liberation to weird obsession, she finds herself ensnared in a chaotic web of blackmail, larceny and lies.
