Shopgirl

This is a classic thinking person's chick flick. I really, really loved it. There were many times in the film that I could not predict what was going to happen in the next scene, let alone how it would end. Steve Martin is brilliantly creepy and somewhat unpredictable in this dramatic role with not a shred of slapstick to be seen. Claire Danes is also divine. The ending was as it should have been, but that did not stop me having a tear or two. Well worth seeing.

Ooohh, I liked this one too. I went out and bought the novella because I enjoyed the story so much. I appreciated Jeremy even more after reading it. And who knew Steve Martin was such a good writer?
