So this weekend we saw Jersey Girl, of course. It was good! Not his greatest film. But an enjoyable little movie. Affleck and the rest of the cast did a nice job.

I’m not sure what else she was expecting…perhaps ponies, rainbows and a bunch of balloons falling from the ceiling?

We also rented Pieces of April this weekend. It was just lovely – I can’t recommend it enough. See it.
