About the movie

  "Cyrus" is the story about a divorcee named John who struggles with single life. After a chance encounter at a party with a beautiful woman named Molly, things appear to be on the upswing. That is, until he meets Molly's twenty-one year old son, Cyrus, whose awkward relationship with his mother puts them in a territorial battle of wits. The result is a very humorous experiment in social discomfort.

  John's life is a mess. He's middle-aged, lonely, divorced, and has all but given up on relationships. When his ex-wife relays the news that she is remarrying, John begrudgingly attends a party with her and her fiancé to try and meet single women. After many unsuccessful attempts, he is intercepted by Molly, a quick witted, sexy woman with whom he shares an instant attraction. The two enjoy many moments together; however, John is puzzled as to why she is so reluctant to invite him over to her house. So, one morning, he decides to follow her home.

  At Molly's house, John begins to snoop around outside looking for some sort of clue. Almost immediately, he is greeted by a personable, 21 year old named Cyrus. As it turns out, Cyrus is the other man in Molly's life - her son and best friend. Cyrus lives with Molly but is overprotective, so much so that he is unwilling to share her with anyone. This unfortunate detail poses a serious problem for John, who winds up in a complicated battle for Molly's affection amidst the intentional and unintentional efforts of Cyrus to sabotage. In short, Cyrus deals with really big issues in a beguiling way.
