i'm not sure i'm smart enough to understand the kids are all right. did you see it? i don't think you blogged about it, but i'll have to look.
i think what i missed is how mark ruffalo is the bad guy. i understand that he had an affair with one of the moms and he wanted her to leave the other mom and transplant they family to him, but he was in love and in love with having a family and, sure, he cheated a little because he wasn't around for the first 18 years and he'd only known them from a few weeks, but i think he just got a little swept up in the moment.
you need to see it and explain it to me because i'm not sure.
it also bothered me that when he wants to start a family, he doesn't even think about doing that with his hot hosts/sex friend. she seemed really hurt and i think it's because she would like to start a family with him and he didn't even think of doing that with her. is it true that guys have the madonna/whore thing?

I never thought about the hot host girl. I see what you mean, though. I blogged about this but I'm not sure if it will help. Here's the link: http://youshouldwatchthismovie.blogspot.com/2010/08/kids-love-mark-ruffalo-who-doesnt.html
ReplyDeleteI think I agree with you about the host. Like, maybe he just wanted the readymade family or maybe, yeah, he just doesn't see her like that. I'm sexist, you know? I feel like there are always really mean things about men on the tip of my tongue.
I'm glad you saw this movie. I love this director.
i like that my respond post mentions your middle class comment and when i reread the post that line made me smile again. it's nice to be consistent. and, it's strange to reread what i wrote.
ReplyDeleteit was weird to reread what i wrote about it way back, totally. i like the cyclical nature of this blog. it's the circle of blog.
