Enough Said
I can't say enough about Enough Said. I simply loved this touching romantic comedy.Julia Louis-Dreyfus plays a divorced woman who decides to pursue the man she's interested in only to learn he's her new friend's ex-husband. If Seinfeld wasn't convincing enough, or The New Old Christine, or VEEP, become a believer. JL-R is the complete package. Her acting range and comedic timing are all on offer.
James Gandolfini was my God. I worshipped at Tony's altar on The Sopranos. His lovely big sweet portrayal of' 'Albert', Julia's love interest, is only more poignant because of his untimely death. Underplayed and brilliant. Actresses Toni Collette and Catherine Keener both hit all the right buttons, as does the rest of the supporting cast.
Though I gush, I don't recommend this to the under 35 crowd. You might just have to have been around the block a few times to appreciate this movie.
Director and writer, Nicole Holofcener, could expect a call when Oscar noms are announced. They don't make movies this pleasing all the time. This one really is "For Jim".
