The Family Man

A modern-day Frank Capra story. Jack Campbell, a successful and talented businessman, is happily living his single life. He has everything, or so he thinks. One day he wakes up in a new life in which he didn't leave his college girlfriend for a London trip. He's married to Kate, lives in New Jersey, and has two kids. He, of course, desperately wants back the life for which he has worked 13 years. He's president of P. K. Lassiter Investment House and not a tire salesman at Big Ed's. He drives a Ferrari and not a mini-van that never starts. And most importantly he doesn't wake up in the morning with kids jumping on the bed. After a bad start, day by day he's more confident in his new life and starts to see what he's been missing. Turns out money's good to have but it's not everything.
