Who is the owner of the cafe where Elizabeth first seeks comfort?
Jeremy, portrayed by Jude Law, owns a quaint cafe in New York City that becomes a regular haunt for Elizabeth, played by Norah Jones. When Jeremy reveals that Elizabeth’s boyfriend has been dining with another woman, she is devastated and starts visiting the cafe frequently, forming a close bond with Jeremy. In a fit of anger and heartbreak, she hands her keys to Jeremy for safekeeping, in case her ex comes looking for them, then disappears without a trace.
Adopting the name Lizzie, she catches a bus to Memphis, where she juggles two jobs—one at a cafe and another at a bar—to save up for a car. During this time, she keeps in touch with Jeremy through postcards, carefully avoiding disclosing her location. Jeremy is determined to find her, reaching out to every restaurant in Memphis, but to no avail.
While working at the bar, Lizzie meets a distressed cop named Arnie, played by David Strathairn, who is struggling with the heartache of his wife, Sue Lynne. Arnie confides in Lizzie about his failed attempts to quit drinking. Tragically, after a fateful night where he threatens Sue Lynne with a gun, he ends up in a fatal car crash. Lizzie comforts Sue Lynne, who, before leaving town, generously tips Lizzie to help with her car savings.
Eventually, adopting the name Beth, Lizzie lands yet another waitress position, this time in a lively casino. Here, she meets the lively poker player Leslie, played by Natalie Portman. Trusting Beth with her savings, Leslie promises to either win a game or give Beth her car. When Leslie loses, she honors her word and gives Beth the vehicle, asking for a ride to Las Vegas to seek financial help from her father.
A shocking turn of events occurs when Leslie receives a call from the hospital, with Beth answering. They learn that Leslie’s father has passed away, something Leslie originally thought was a ploy to manipulate her. Despite her initial reluctance, Leslie wants to keep the car as it belonged to her father and ultimately pays Beth the money she promised, which Beth uses to buy her own car.
In a twist of fate, Elizabeth returns to New York, only to find her ex-boyfriend’s apartment available for rent. Crossing the street to the cafe, she is met with a delightful surprise—Jeremy has been waiting for her and has a special spot saved at the counter. Their conversation reveals that genuine feelings have blossomed between them, hinting at a new beginning amidst the chaos of their pasts.
