I waited a reasonable number of hours before calling, even though you've been on my mind since I got up at 5:15 this morning. I'm thinking we should go to dinner. I'm working nights this week and if we wait for next week you'll chicken out so it'll have to be Friday. I know Friday is kind of a date night, but I think that's ok.

It pains me that in a movie with Jack Nicholson I end up putting up a quote that Keanu Reeves says. Jack had plenty of great lines, but the quick monologue above really stuck in my head, so that's what I went with.

Something's Gotta Give is a great romantic comedy. It's good because it is both romantic and funny. It's great because it manages to be smart too. Jack is in top form (although I've heard his real life he's a lot like this character, so it wasn't too much of an acting stretch.) The only thing I really didn't like was Diane Keaton's marathon crying sessions, they got a bit old.

This one is highly recommended. It was lots of fun, plays with ideas of May-December relationships, and should be a good time for all regardless of your views on those kinds of social issues.
