A gentle parable on how best to live life that both steers clear of mawkish and clearly demonstrates that Curtis should have fucked Hugh Grant off a lot earlier in his career.

  1. Why are you watching a bunch of gentle human interest films? Is it a palette cleanser before fright fest?

    1. I didn't know I was gonna be watching the second one when I saw the first one. The first one was clearing space off the recorder, the dice chose it.

    2. Ha ha! This is exactly what I was thinking! I think Al is in denial, he's clearly trying to scatter a layer of innocence over the cracked crust of his volcanic brain before Frighfest causes it to erupt in plumes of hot filth and globs of molten depravity!

  3. After starting with a nice romantic comedy for 45 minutes things stall a bit for a bit too long as we see a family being nice to each other with little drama, but, a little judicious aside, this sets up a surprisingly touching finale.

    Not for the cynical.
