drivel. occasionally entertaining. but mainly due to the supporting characters. that’s really all i have to say about it.

oh wait i did have some more to say. the thing i’ve been wondering about lately is that if the movie industry goes through cycles that reflect the political and social happenings in the U.S. what does it mean that one of the major outputs lately has been romantic comedies set in new york and the surrounding area? are they trying to inundate us with sappy cheese in order to erase the reality of 9/11 or something? it’s just that there’s this, maid in manhattan, two weeks notice, the guru– any more? it’s a fascinating contradiction in my opinion and i’m just curious as to whether it’s premeditated or not.
