Mr. Jealousy

Mr. Jealousy is a 1997 American romantic comedy film written and directed by Noah Baumbach and starring Eric Stoltz and Annabella Sciorra.

They immediately hit it off, but Ramona mentions on their first date that one of her ex-boyfriends is famous writer Dashiell Frank.

After several sessions with the group and Dr. Poke, Dashiell is complaining about how he has never been faithful when Lester bursts out with some criticism that shocks everyone.

During one particular session, Dashiell is talking about a character in one of his books, and says that it was based on a true person.

They go to a bar where they drink scotch and Dashiell reveals that he likes their arguments in therapy, since no one else speaks their minds.

In another session, Dashiell reveals that he had met Ramona coincidentally after a meeting, and that they had had sex.

Several months later, at the Iowa Writer's Workshop, Lester is working on his writing, and back in New York, Ramona has been going to Dr. Poke for therapy.

The scene then shifts to Vince and Lucretia's wedding, where Lester and Ramona see each other.
