Me Without You is a 2001 British film starring Anna Friel, Michelle Williams, and Oliver Milburn, and written and directed by Sandra Goldbacher.

Stephen Holden of The New York Times called it "psychologically savvy ... story of a toxic friendship, established in early childhood, whose poisons continue to circulate and infect both well into their adult lives.

Later, Marina runs over to Holly's house to tell her that she has found out about a party that Nat's girlfriend, Carolyn, is having.

The next morning, Nat wakes up Marina and asks her to give a note to Holly that says what happened last night was "beautiful" but a case of bad timing, and that he looks forward to their future.

However, Marina angrily rips up the note and goes to see Holly who is sitting in her yard reading a book.

Later on, the three of them are reunited at a New Year's party, where Nat announces his intention to marry his girlfriend, Isabel.

Marina and Holly do not appear as close as they once were, although each accepts the other's presence for the sake of their two young daughters, who appear to be best friends.

He called Williams' performance a "surprise" for having a "perfectly convincing British accent, and is cuddly and smart both at once.
