Last night I went to a preview screening of the movie "Dan in Real Life" starring Steve Carell, Juliette Binoche and Dane Cook. The premise of the movie is that Steve Carell's character (Dan) falls in love with his Brother's (Dane Cook) girlfriend (Juliette Binoche) while at a family getaway at their summer home in Rhode Island. Dan is a single parent of three girls - his wife died four years earlier. He is also a newspaper advice columnist.It was pretty good. Very formulaic, but funny and heartwarming. The characters were all fun - also a little formulaic though. As my friend said, their family was a little too perfect. I mean they were dysfunctional, but dysfunctional in that way that warms your heart. I know I wanted to be a part of it.

I cannot wait to see this movie. I love Steve Carrel (sp?) ever since Jon introduced me to the Office last December. Mm.
How have you been?
