(500) days of summer

this movie starts out promising but goes nowhere. none of the supporting actors have any depth, there are no subplots, and the titular relationship deteriorates for no apparent reason. too bad.

leatherheads

semi-interesting movie about the advent of professional football in the 1920s. the movie tries too hard to be screwball comedy. George Clooney charms, though.

feast of love

semi soft-porn narrated by the ubiquitous Morgan Freeman. couples have sex, get together, break up, and die.

the mysteries of pittsburgh

great book, contrived and predictable movie, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Sienna Miller is pretty.
