Answer 2

"Развод по-американски"

Translated back, it means "Divorce, American Style". It's an allusion to a widely popular (at least in Russia) "Divorce, Italian Style" (1961)

Incidentally, this translation is indicative of how Russians view relationships in America. While the characters in The Break-Up can be said to be "dating" or "living together", they are certainly not married, so they technically cannot be said to be going through a "divorce". Yet, in Russia, their monogamous, committed relationshiop would be viewed as tantamount to a marriage. When people "date" in Russia, they rarely live together and often consider themselves free to see other people. Consequently, there is no good direct translation of "breaking up" into Russian, simly because the act of breaking up is not as intense. People either move on, or get married and then get a divorce.

No idea whether this background info is helpful, but I had to think about whether this was an appropriate translation. I think it is.
