Someone like You is a 2001 American romantic comedy film directed by Tony Goldwyn, based on Laura Zigman's 1998 novel Animal Husbandry.

The film stars Ashley Judd, Greg Kinnear, Hugh Jackman, Marisa Tomei, and Ellen Barkin, and follows a heartbroken woman looking for a reason why she was dumped.

Ray ends things with Dee, but seems troubled by her lack of apparent emotion to the news, and begins enthusiastically apartment hunting with Jane.

They find a place they love and begin to move forward, but Ray suddenly becomes distant and after much delay tells Jane his feelings have changed and he no longer wants to be with her.

Jane reads a magazine article about bovine sexuality, learning that bulls lose interest in intercourse with cows after they've already mated with them once.

Eddie comforts Jane and helps her muster her courage before a staff meeting, but she nonetheless lashes out at Ray for his deception.

On the day of the interview, Jane decides to hang up the phone and admit on stage that she is the source of the article and that Dr. Charles does not exist.
