Thomas - A fabulous book. For me, the movie took a giant step forward just by mentioning it.
Comfort Addict - Watch Garden State together and watch the other two alone. You will have to decide if she will like them because they weren't easy to watch. I may like Sideways better after I watch it again. Closer might be too emotionally intense for a lot of people.
I loved Sideways---loved it! The two guys were so people I knew and tolerated. I want to be Sandra Oh. And help me out with "A Confederacy of Dunces"---I'm googled-out.
Lorna - Confederacy of the Dunces is a book written by John Kennedy Toole about a loser living in New Orleans. Mr. Tooled committed suicide and, if I remember the story correctly, his mother found the manuscript after his death and had it published. It's a fantastic book.

Thanks for the mini-reviews, Laurie. I want to see all of those movies. Mrs. CA, on the other hand, has little interest in the last two.

Garden State: New Jersey
Closer: Mariano Rivera
Sideways: Childhood joke about Oriental girls' vag.
All of the above would make good movies.

Old Horsetail - Write the screenplays!
Gone to Amazon as we speak....or whatever
Lorna - You'll love it!
I loved Sideways, especially the J.K. Toole reference! :)
Actually, the name is O'Toole, and I will NEVER eat a Lucky Dog again!
I loved Sideways- just saw it last night. Those storm pics are amazing!
Danno - I couldn't believe it when I heard him say Confederacy of the Dunces. I sat straight up on the couch and yelped. I swear, I yelped.
Anonymous - Nope, it's Toole. Check Amazon and Google. And, never eat a Lucky Dog again? Blasphemy!
MommaK - I'm still on the fence about Sideways until I watch it again. I might do that tonight.
