How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days is a 2003 romantic comedy film. The film is directed by Donald Petrie and stars Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey. It is based on a short cartoon book of the same name by Michele Alexander and Jeannie Long.
The film tells the story of journalist Andie Anderson (Hudson), who works for Composure magazine as the "How to..." girl and is getting bored, wishing that she could write more pieces about things that she considers important, such as politics, economics, religion, poverty, etc. She soon finds herself writing an article called "How To Lose A Guy in 10 Days." Andie tells her boss that she will date a man and do all the things that women tend to do wrong, when they are in relationships, in order to be granted more freedom in her writing.
At the same time, advertising executive Benjamin Barry (McConaughey) tells his boss that he can make any woman fall in love with him in just ten days and can bring her as a date to the company's ball. If he succeeds, he will get to be in charge of the advertising for the new diamond company account headed by his boss.
Through conspiring on the part of Ben's rival coworkers, Judy and Judy, who were present at Composure Magazine earlier in the day and are aware of Andie's new assignment, Andie and Ben meet that night and start their quests. Neither reveals their true intentions, which leads to strange goings-on in their relationship. Andie puts Ben through many various experiences in order to make him break up with her very quickly, but Ben sticks around in order to fulfill his deed in making her fall in love with him. Examples of what Andie does include being very clingy, interfering on guys night with Ben and his friends, and taking him to a Celine Dion concert instead of a basketball game. Ben stays with her despite everything and both people reveal their true motives at the end, but their initial desires have changed.
The film also contains a romantic subplot involving Andie's co-worker Michelle Rubin (Kathryn Hahn) and a man named Mike (Justin Peroff).
