I read Love In A Time Of Cholera because of this movie. I don’t even like sappy movies. However, this one? You have to love it.

I own in on DVD and VHS. I have the soundrtrack on CD.

I’ve gone to Serendipity and stared at the place where they sat. Seriously.

A very disturbing movie. Two reasons I liked it: New York scenery and the scene at the end of the trailer. Fun fact: that wasn’t part of the script. Some cabbie didn’t feel like going around so he went right on through where they were filming. The famous line was off the cuff. Kinda cool, huh?

You’ve gotta love the grittiness. Amateur video. Don Henley lyrics. Unsuspecting backs of bald heads. That’s what I’ve been talkin about.
