Richard LaGravenese, you are one awesome individual! That's all I could think after watching P.S. I Love You, which LaGravenese both wrote and directed. It's a chick flick, no doubt. And it is pretty easy to predict. And it waxes strong on sentiment.
But it also works like a pheromone perfume. Watch it with your loved one and they'll want to jump you the first chance they get.
So here we are, watching this movie. I've got that blank stare on my face like I'm being completely narcotized by the movie. Sarah is just a wreck, however. All snot and tears. My blank stare becomes a sly grin. I know I shall reap the benefits of such a sappy story.
And that's what chick flicks are all about. Or what they should be about. There are some that turn into man-hating. Yeah, I can do without those. And then there are the other ones that, for whatever reason, were crafted in just the manner that the woman leaves the end of the movie with that question "why doesn't my significant other behave in such a noble, chivalrous and romantic manner?" Those are no good, either.
But this one left me saying Richard LaGravenese you're the greatest. And P.S., I love you!!!
