Dad's Preview:
This heart-felt romance film contains one of the most raw and heartfelt love
confessions on screen. Ben Affleck recites how he can no longer
hide his love, telling Amy, his friend and a lesbian, how he really feels
about her. Affleck and Joey Adams are very good together on
screen in this twisted-up Rom-com. This film begs to ask the
question, "Can true love conquer all, even a person's
sexual orientation?" Kevin Smith's favorite
slackers, Jay and Silent Bob, even stop
in for a memorable cameo. |
