We watched a fairly entertaining romantic comedy flick last night, How To Lose A Guy In Ten Days. The story is pure sit-com, and the ending is just like every other romantic comedy you’ve ever seen (an unraveling of earlier deceptions leads to one partner quitting their job and packing up to leave town, with the other partner chasing them down for a final reconciliation in a very public place, the more disruptive to local traffic, the better). Still, the movie had quite a few funny moments, and I got to spend two hours looking at Kate Hudson, who absolutely glows. (And on the basis of her performance here, Almost Famous just jumped way up in my “To rent” list.)
