Love and Other Drugs is a sort-of romantic comedy about erectile-dysfunction drugs and Parkinson’s Disease. Because Lord knows you can’t make a romantic comedy that’s just about erectile dysfunction. Jake Gyllenhaal is Jamie Randall, a pharmaceutical-salesman smoothie who talks his way into doctors’ storerooms, where he fills their cupboards with his samples and chucks out those of his competitors. It’s the mid-1990s, and Viagra, which began as a gleam in some scientist’s eye, is just about ready to be unleashed on the public. Jamie’s company, Pfizer, is the manufacturer, and when our randy young go-getter learns of the drug’s miracle properties, he begs his supervisor (a weary Borscht Belt Willie Loman, played by Oliver Platt) for the account.
