The Freebie is a 2010 independent film written and directed by Katie Aselton, starring Dax Shepard and Katie Aselton. Dax Shepard joined the cast a mere 18 hours before filming commenced (from the DVD commentary).
In Los Angeles, Annie and Darren are a married couple in a comfortable relationship that's lost its spark. They talk constantly, express affection verbally, start the day with high-end coffee, end the afternoon with gelato, shop at the farmer's market, prepare dinner as a team, do crossword puzzles, and talk in bed. Darren wonders if a one-night stand would help bring more sex to their marriage. Soon, the two of them are laying out the ground rules and talking through the mechanics of each finding a lover for one night. They agree to give each other no details about the experience. The night comes. Will this give their relationship a needed boost?
***SPOILER ALERT***
The first thing that comes to mind is that they could have tried harder and been imaginative in order to fix the issue.
They should have at least tried to hire professionals and set an hour to be at home. One thing I don't understand about this movie is why it is classified as a comedy.
I think the real problem was erectile dysfunction and too much porn XD. The thing I really like about this movie is that you don't get to know what really happened to both of them.
