Comedy starring Anna Faris as Jane, an unambitious actress with a taste for marijuana. One morning, Jane has a big audition and gets stoned to take the edge off her anxieties. Under the influence, she decides to eat the 14 cupcakes that her roommate Steve (Danny Masterson) has made. But what Jane doesn't realise is that the cupcakes actually contain some very strong weed, and getting through the rest of her day is going to prove a much more difficult task than she first anticipated.
Lynn Shelton directs this US comedy starring Keira Knightley, Chloë Grace Moretz and Sam Rockwell. Though Megan (Knightley) is 28 years old, an age when many women would be looking to settle down, she remains young at heart - to the extent that she flees when her boyfriend Anthony (Mark Webber) proposes to her. Informing the bewildered Anthony that she will be away at a conference for the next week, Megan instead seeks refuge with 14-year-old Annika (Moretz). The opportunity to relive her adolescence through hanging out with Annika and her friends clearly appeals to Megan, but will her growing relationship with the girl's father, Craig (Rockwell), force her to face reality at last?
A New Jersey classic comes to life once more, and it's better than ever . . . "This excellent collection of essays covers the sweep of New Jersey history from the colonial, proprietary era to the recent politics of Mount Laurel. It brings together some of the finest writing on the state, and raises questions relevant to major themes in American history more generally. Maxine N. Lurie has provided an excellent introductory essay to contextualize each piece in the collection, and each essay also comes with suggestions for further reading on the topic." -Paul G. E. Clemens, history department, Rutgers University Praise for the prior edition . . . "An absolutely superb collection in every aspect, this covers all of the chronological and topical bases with remarkable comprehensiveness. Contributions are not only appropriate to the purpose of the book; they have the additional merit of being very significant pieces of scholarship on their own, not only in the history of New Jersey but in American history in general. . . . Lurie's illuminating headnotes for each article, which include not only shrewd interpretive insights but also bibliographical references, set this book significantly apart." -Douglas Greenberg, Dean of Arts and Sciences, Rutgers University MAXINE N.

She is the author of a number of articles and book chapters on early American and New Jersey history, the editor of the first edition of this anthology, and the coeditor of the Encyclopedia of New Jersey and Mapping New Jersey (all Rutgers University Press).
