Makes me mad
21 October 2000
It always makes me mad when movies manipulate me into crying. I always fight it and "refuse" to cry. I get all fixed up with my eye make-up, then some movie like this makes me make it all a mess! I was doing pretty well in this movie at not crying until the end. So just get your Kleenex ready about half way through the movie and have it handy. Helen Hunt was very good in this movie, and I thought she was believable as a blue-collar type. I didn't like the portrayal of the teacher as such a bad dresser with the goofy tennis shoes with a suit. I teach high school, and most of the men dress "cooler" than that! Kevin Spacy was good too. Haley Osment was exactly like he was in Sixth Sense - I kept expecting him to say "I see dead people." This movie was worth the price - it's very good, but I'm glad I didn't make my husband see it - only the "sensitive" type men will like it. Mine likes movies like The Ladies Man and Best in Show much better. Anyway - don't forget the Kleenex!
