Did you guys think I was gay?
16 December 2010
My first reaction was that I was watching the Odd Couple with Felix and Oscar. Nic (Annette Bening) was just falling all over herself trying to be open an accepting, while Jules (Julianne Moore) was more authentic and earthy.

In fact, I would probably be in opposition to most when I say that Moore did a much better job in the film. Yeah, I know that Bening is getting more of the accolades, but I just get turned off by her character's perfectionism.

Mark Ruffalo was excellent as Paul, the sperm donor, and Mia Wasikowska was endearing as their daughter, Joni.

A great film about relationships and parenting with a twist that makes it all the more fun.
