The Long Weekend is a 2005 sex comedy film directed by Pat Holden and starring Chris Klein and Brendan Fehr alongside Chandra West. The film follows two brothers, Cooper (Klein) and Ed Waxman (Fehr), who participate in a weekend of debauchery.
Cooper is an actor who sees life as one big party, while Ed is in advertising and takes life too seriously. When Ed gets stressed over a deadline he has to meet, Cooper works to get his brother hooked up with a girl, thus a long weekend of stress and beautiful women, culminating in Ed's meeting, and making love to, the woman of his dreams - and all without his brother's meddling.
