SPOILERS!!!!!! Let me tell you, I signed up at IMDB, JUST to write my opinion of this movie, it SUCKS!!!!!!!!!! it is sold as so modern, single women dating (and masturbating, oh!) and it ends up being a most brain-dead, conservative fairy-tale. It is just the writer/director/actress indulging herself.
see the philosophy lesson develop:
a) The character things you should not have sex unless you want to marry the person (no shopping around)- she writes a book and she is SOO famous....... (and rich) but SAD because she is ALONE.
b) but she is horny
c) (she thinks masturbation is only ok for single people)
d) she meets a wild boy a la howard stein
e) but he end up bein a nice, sensitive person, ill-treated by his family. (like howard stein?)
f) she says I love you, he doesn't
g) oh! a conflict finally?
h) he DOES love her (but she keeps thinking love does not exist, people only are together for sex reasons (and herself then?)
i) cause she is jewish and MODERN, she does not go to a shrink, but to confession (ooooooooooohhhhhhhhh!)
j) because the priest was cool, he is now out of priesthood and tells her "stop acting like the book"
k) she is invited to a big rally in washington to talk about how women can stand on their own, and do not need man to be valued.
l) she stands, weeps and says that "WOMEN NEED MAN TO BE FULFILLED"
AND THIS IS NOT EVEN IRONICAL!!!!!
m) all the political correctness of having a lesbian manager dissapears ( SHE - the writer AND the director, and the ALTER EGO of the character) REALLY MEAN IT!!!!!!!!
n) of course, nice guy sees it on TV
o) she writes another book, and imagines herself at different ages SINGLE SINGLE SINGLE (you see, that was the ONLY problem!)
p) he comes to her signing and they smile at each other, she starts being neurotic again, and talks and talks, and he kisses her to shut her up... ah! that is love
q) movie has ended
Conflict of the movie: I want sex - I don't want sex with someone I will not marry - I have sex - OH! fairy tale! I WILL marry him.
read me again
conflict of the movie: that I have rented it, spent almost 5 bucks and 1, 30 hours of my life, plus, all these reviews I am writing to vent steam.
movie is worth 0, pity there wasn't that option!
