Last night our "ladies group" went to see Larry Crowne. Tom Hanks wrote and starred in the movie along with Julia Roberts. I loved it! If you want to watch an inspiring an uplifting movie then this is for you! Don't worry, it's not sad. You know I am Patti's daughter and if she can cry everytime someone says "Amen" then you know I'm not far behind and I didn't even tear up once.
I loved both Tom Hanks character and Julia Roberts character! I'm more keenly aware of actors now and I always wonder if I'll see them as their previous characters. No worries, Forrest Gump and Erin Brokovich were not in evidence in this movie. I will be SHOCKED if this movie is nominated for any awards but that doesn't mean that I'm not in awe of this movie. Tom Hanks wrote it. He WROTE the movie. Yes, I know, someone writes every movie but even as I watched it I wondered to myself "Did he write that or was that improv?" I am in awe that someone created such a good, fun movie. I don't know why this movie is sticking out in my head so much because he wrote it. I loved That Thing You Do (which was a critical flop but cult classic). I know he wrote and starred in it but this movie was so warm and funny. I'm in love with Larry Crowne - Crowne with an E!
I hope you'll check this out sometime soon. It makes me feel like I can do anything! I know I need to do something and stop floating along. Maybe this movie will be a motivating factor and help me get my nose out of a book, my butt off the couch and get me moving. If not, I really enjoyed it for the entertainment value! Two thumbs up! Loved it!!
