Lovely Movies: the Answer Man

If I had to pick a favorite type of film I'd probably go with those unglamourous feel good movies. With the kind of people you could find around the corner and stories that might actually happen. The Answer Man is one of those.

It's full of people struggling with human problems and trying to make the best of life anyway. It has some really cute and quirky children in it, which always helps too. And even a teeny tiny part for Kat Dennings.

Here's the trailer. As usual, don't watch the whole thing. Just the first minute and a half, ok?

Also, the music in this film is amazing! Every single time a song would start I'd think "hey, that music is really nice", and that, my friend, is a pretty rare thing.

Lovely Movies: Charlie Bartlett

I don't think I had seen a Kat Dennings movie prior to seeing her on 2 Broke Girls, but I was an instant fan when I saw her in that show. She's just so cool and funny and unique and I really love her voice!

So after seeing her on cover of the Charlie Bartlett dvd and then watching the trailer, I went back to get the movie.

And it was even better than I hoped. I have to admit it didn't start out great (I wasn't into the violent part with the toilet and everything), but after about 15 minutes it turned around completely.

Remember watch 1 minute, maybe 1:30!

I loved the actor that played the main character, he was very quirky and smart and clearly didn't hold back, but wasn't over the top either. Also, I loved the music he made in this movie (and the overall soundtrack).

And though I won't spoil the ending, I will have you know that it was awesome too. So enjoy!
