Okay, so I don't know how someone SUCCESSFULLY pitched the plot for The Accidental Husband as a romantic comedy, because when I first read about it on imdb.com I thought JDM was trying out his hand at thrillers. Alas, nope, we are supposed to buy this as a romcom [*shakes head at the state of romcoms*], but I gotta admit, it looks sort of adorable. I mean, Colin Firth! JDM! "It's super duper!" SAMIR!

And...Miss Pettigrew Lives For a Day



Lee Pace as a sometimes scruffy, sometimes not, lovesick Brit! Amy Adams as a flighty flibbertygibbit stuck between three delicious men! Frances McDormand! CiarĂ¡n Hinds! The shoes and clothes! BIG BAND MUSIC. *wrings hand* When the hell is this coming out?

Hey, have you seen this book? I just started it last night. Still in the ??? period.

I hadn't! It seems like something that people seem to either love or hate -- let me know what you think.

Will do. I'm still on the oh-this-could-be-very-very-very-VERY-bad side of the fence. *fingers crossed* Don't let me down, James!

Oh, JDM. I will see many crappy, cliched rom-coms for you. At least this looks better than P.S. I Love You.

Miss Pettigrew Lives For a Day looks cute! I'm seriously jealous of Amy Adams and all the fabulous men she gets to work with. I think I may even go see Possession for Lee Pace.

I found P.S. I Love You to be quite affecting. Better than 27 Dresses, and I certainly didn't expect that. Plus, you know, JDM with an IRISH ACCENT, V. With the smile and the twinkling eyes. And his ass was pretty nice. NO WRONG THERE. Not gonna lie, I cried like a little bitch several times. I was VERY grateful I had the theater mostly to myself.

Ms. Adams - I mean this is the chick who guested on Smallville season one, the one who like did the weird unlatching-jaw thing and ATE A ROADKILL-DED DEER on the side of a deserted highway. Look at her now! She has an Oscar nom under her belt and quite the career ahead of her. Even when she finds herself in less than fantastic films, she is usually the bright spot.

I know right?! I'll be there.

Oh yeah, I forgot that was her! Before she was on The Office and good movies, I mostly remember her from Cruel Intentions 2 and an episode of Buffy.

Have you heard about her and Emily Blunt's movie at Sundance, Sunshine Cleaning. It sounds great.

Yes! I really can't wait to see it. I'm a little bit in love with Emily after The Devil Wears Prada so it's like total win-win.

She was the best thing about The Jane Austen Book Club. Her and that kid were hot.

Yeah, she was the only reason I wanted to see it, because I absolutely loathed the book. I put it down after like ten pages, and dude, I LOVE Jane Austen and pretty much anything to do with her.
