Anyone else looking forward to seeing this one?
Richard Roeper and Michael Collins review the film
"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter

Why does this title annoy me?
It might as well be called "Precious Moments."
Or "Icky Sweet Movie."

I know, it just sounds like it.
"Snow Angels"
"Dust Bunnies"
"Fuzzy Lollies"

Posted: 4/14/08 at 7:33pmIt doesn't seem like this is going to get much of a release, huh? Anyone seen it yet?

Posted: 4/19/08 at 6:12pmI saw it on Thursday. Sam Rockwell is phenomenal in it.
I starred in a short film called Magnetic Personality. Check it out!

I was expecting a little bit more from this. The ending is a downer, and the director doesn't really pull all of the elements together efficiently enough to make that okay. Best performance I've seen so far from Kate Beckinsale, though.

it was so much nicer to indulge my "Jack's son" fanboy-ishness with this than with that martial arts film he did. But i'll probably see that one too.
The rest of the performances were top-notch. Sedaris still amazes me. i adore her.

But I also guarantee that if I don't
ask you to be mine, I'll regret it for
the rest of my life..."

I watched it the other night and I have to say it's the closest thing to a masterpiece that I've seen in the last two years.
It's absolutely brilliant. Go rent it, buy it on DVD, or get it on PayPerView. It's fantastic.
Rockwell is astounding and FINALLY giving the performance of her career is Kate Beckinsale, suddenly showing off talents no one imagined she possessed. It's a stunning, incredibly moving, powerful tour-de-force film. It's a shame a movie like this has no shot at any Oscar nominations.
