Have you seen Music and Lyrics?

Love the new forum rearrangement, BTW. Brava!

I forced hubby to see "Music and Lyrics" with me a couple of weeks ago. (He would have picked "Wild Hogs"—no thanks.) He doesn't like Hugh Grant (I'm not a huge fan either, but he's okay) but he likes Drew Barrymore, so he enjoyed it in the end. I really liked it, especially since I'm kind of into songwriting right now. I haven't actually put music and lyrics together yet, at least not in finished form, but the movie was an interesting view into what that entails. Of course, I don't know how accurate a real songwriter would think it was.

I just thought it was very entertaining. And the songs were actually pretty good. The song he had made popular back in the '80s was pure cheese, but still fun. Loved the little motorbike-revving wrist move he had. Hilarious.

Did anyone else see it?

I'm guessing that's a no!

Well, even I have my limits. Not sure the watching of Hugh Grant films is really acceptable in this day and age.

I agree, MDavis; it was refreshing for me, too, to see a more intelligent conflict than the one I wrote into my novel...

It didn't seem especially sappy to me, but then my sapometer has been way off lately. My cheesometer still works pretty well, though, and it definitely went off a couple times! Then again, sap and cheese are often interchangeable.

Okay, enough rambling. Casey out.
