Jenna: Dear Baby, I hope someday somebody wants to hold you for 20 minutes straight. All they do is wrap you up in their arms without an ounce of selfishness to it.

A sad note on the film: The writer/director was murdered during the post-production of the film. Adrienne Shelley's death was first assumed to be a suicide, but the perpetrator confessed. Shelley also has a role as one of the three waitresses.
Andy Griffith plays Joe, the elderly owner of the pie restaurant, to perfection.

I have been hearing about this movie. Mostly on what has happened to the writer.
Is the movie itself worth renting?
Don't know this film. Nor the story that goes with it. Am I out of the loop?
It opened last week, I believe. There had been quite some buzz because of the writer/director dying. Keri Russell is the star, and she does a great job. And then, of course, there is Andy.
The movie is definitely "chick flick" material, and I would endorse seeing it for sure, Diane.
Thinking some more: It was picked up at Sundance, so it's an Indy movie. Do our indies make it to Oz, Julie?
I've also heard good buzz on this film. Thanks for the info, Shirl. I'll try to see it now.
Some do. There are a few independent cinemas in town which specialise in showing indie and arthouse films. I never go there though, cos I'm just not a movie buff.
