We saw The Winning Season this morning and it was SOOO great! It's by the same director as Grace is Gone and Lonesome Jim. But it's a comedy about an alcoholic busboy misanthrope (Sam Rockwell) who is asked to coach girls basketball at the local high school. The result is a totally non-formulaic sports comedy with some family drama and redemption mixed in for good measure.
And how funny was this - during the final scene, who do me and Shiri spot in the background but a friend of ours from work, JR who does security at OTX screenings. He ended up being in about a million shots and we got a kick out of it. Go JR!
Then we saw an Israeli movie called Zion and His Brothers which wasn't really up my alley but Shiri liked it.
Now we are sitting at the Raquet Club about to see Humpday which is supposed to be awesome.
We probably will only see five movies today. What a bunch of SLACKERS!
