So, today we went to see Stranger Than Fiction. That's right! Poppa and I went to see a "chick-flick!" I didn't literally count'em; but, I am sure that he and I laughed more than 100 times each...
In fact (without spoiling it for those who've yet to see it), at one moment when the director (Marc Forster) was eliciting a collective gasp from the audience... Dad and I were the only two in the theater roaring with laughter -- in clear contrast to the rest of the audience's expected reaction... Hahaha...
Emma Thompson, Queen Latifah and Dustin Hoffman each play wonderful supporting roles... Between the two of us, Dad and I give this 3.5 middle fingers... <g>
Go see it! If you want an enjoyable time and need to escape for a couple of hours... this is a good remedy!
A couple of notes which interested me --
- So far as I can tell, this is Zach Helm's writing debut...
- Due to the creativity exposed in this film, I now plan to see Finding Neverland which was also directed by Forster...
- The writing process is nicely demonstrated through experience...
