Well, gather round fans of "Freaks and Geeks" and "Undeclared".  I am going to tell you a story... Maybe not, but I am going to tell you to go see this movie.  With many of the characters from these previous shows as well as some of the same returning cast from "40 year old Virgin", it is Judd Apatow at his finest.  His own family is even cast in the film, which I guess shows his own faith in the movie.   And SPOILER ALERT: yes she does have the baby in the end.  You can hate me for giving that away, but it was your choice to keep reading.  Anyways, go see this movie for the sake of all that is good and just and . . . stuff.

wow, what can i say?  not what i expected, but still a very good movie.  i expected a dramady, which it was.  but i also expected her to fall in love with the guy and live happily ever after with her dog(s).  that didn't quite happen, it was more of a "finding yourself" type of movie.  i love peter saarsgard, laura dern, and the neighbor in the movie ( i forget his name).  i now have new repect for molly shannon and her serious acting ability, which i have only ever seen her in comedy (ie. snl).  so you know, very good  independent film. i recomend it to those who like the independent/ different/ quirky/ bittersweet/ ect.

a movie staring parker posey!  can it get any better?  let me just answer that question for you...."no".  an actress who is usually in a supporting role, now has a whole movie devoted to her!  i could watch her act forever.  i mean, really, strap me down like in "a clockwork orange" and force me to watch all of her movies.  it wouldn't really be torture, but you get the idea, i hope.
