a first time watch at the recommendation of Criterion. i had never heard of it before, and that's a rotten shame. follows the classic 90s rom-com structure but loudly female and jewish. funny, sweet, and pickled :)

36 years later and somehow this movie captures exactly how I feel about dating (unfortunately). Late to the game but it is so good.

I never hear anyone talk about this one! I think my mom bought this from a $5 DVD bin but it just ended up in my house one day as a kid and it‘s my favorite rom com ever — ridiculous story but INSANELY good sound track that are still some of my favorite songs ever (e.g. Cigarettes & Coffee by Otis Redding but also Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots) and Isla Fisher being one of my favorite depictions of a manic pixie dream girl maybe ever. And sweet bb Abigail Breslin. Oh and Rachel Weisz.

it totally feels anacronic, i don´t recall watching such a stupid cis-het romcom in a cinema in my whole life, this surely feels like a product designed to be half watched on television on your aunt´s house, but hey, i laughed my ass off (and the whole cinema did too), and glenn powell is a screwball genius that would certainly fit in a forgotten leo mccarey film. will gluck strikes again!

I’m not strong enough to go full cold-turkey and delete my Instagram, but I am also not strong enough to limit my screen intake. My solution: delete the Instragram app and login on the browser. It is an absolutely horrible user experience so I’m never on longer than a few minutes. Get in, get out!

Few things give me more joy than a good ol’ thunderstorm. And to sit outside, under a covered structure, with the wind sending droplets every so often… a gift.
