Plot

Ollie Trinke is a young, suave music publicist who seems to have it all, with a new wife and a baby on the way. But life deals him a bum hand when he's suddenly faced with single fatherhood, a defunct career and having to move in with his father. To bounce back, it takes a new love and the courage instilled in him by his daughter.

About Jersey Girl

Jersey Girl is a 2004 American comedy-drama film written, co-edited and directed by Kevin Smith. It stars Ben Affleck and Liv Tyler with George Carlin (in his final live-action film appearance), Stephen Root, Mike Starr, Raquel Castro (in her film debut), Jason Biggs and Jennifer Lopez in supporting roles. The film follows a widowed man (Affleck) who must learn how to properly take care of his precocious daughter (Castro) after her mother (Lopez) dies during childbirth. It was the first film written and directed by Smith not set in the View Askewniverse as well as the first that did not feature appearances by Jay and Silent Bob, although animated versions of them appear in the View Askew logo. At $35 million, not including marketing costs, it was then Smith's biggest-budgeted film, and was a box office bomb, grossing just $36 million.
