Movie number 13 : It's Complicated

Another Saturday and another movie. In this period of cold and loneliness, we do, all of us, need a bit of cheer up! Thankfully, one of my favourite actress made a comedy: Ms Streep. Let's say another one, it seems like she is doing only comedy in the past few years .. Even though in the meantime she played in "Doubt" ( which I have not seen yet)

I think I fell for Ms Streep, since I have since "Kramer vs Kramer" and she is one of the most productive Actress, of her generation, in the last 30 years, with over 50 movies and a full shelf of Awards ( 2 Oscars, 1 BAFTA, 1 Palme d'Or, 2 Emmys, 6 Golden Globe, 5 Grammy), and she is the Actress who hold the record of Awards Nominations I think we can say she is good !! hahahah
As accompany Ms Streep as one of the funniest actor: Steve Martin, and Mr Alec Baldwin ( ex husband of Kim Basinger) - maybe the last one will have his career re-lived as his last movies were pure flops!

So take a divorced couple, let they meet at the graduation of of their son, sleep in the same hotel and share a bottle or more of wine ... The ex Wife become "the other woman", even if in the mean time she meets Steve Martin who is her architect, and kind of fell for him ... The storyline is well defined, we know where we are going and where it will end with no doubt. If they are divorced there is a reason why.
This movies taught me a few things:
1/ If you are divorced, remember why you are and why you are now friends ( if you are )
2/ You are never too old to flirt ( Ms Streep is 61 and Martin is 64)
3/ You are never too old to smoke a joint and have fun!

I left the cinema with a grin, and I did spend a really enjoyable moment... it is a movie for laughing, a little bit crying and a good lump of fresh air when you feel torn and sad
