Jason Bateman plays her best friend, Wally, a financial analyst and head case who is also, of course, secretly in love with her. Through a mix-up so wildly implausible that it almost makes sense, Wally, unbeknownst to Kassie, ends up as “the seed man.”
Adapted by screenwriter Alan Loeb from the short story “The Baster” by Jeffrey Eugenides and directed by Josh Gordon and Will Speck, “The Switch” is best remembered for Bateman’s a marvelous cameo from Jeff Goldblum as Wally’s business partner. Goldblum’s patter-style delivery turns conventional dialogue into jazz riffs.
