Delivery Man comes out today and might be worth a look in. It's an American remake of a French-Canadian movie, but by the same director/writer. The preview looks exactly like the original.
It's about a guy who was a sperm donor years ago, and finds out he has 500 kids, a bunch of whom want to find him. He secretly starts to look them up, and gets drawn into helping them out with their lives. It's a lovely little comedy--one that takes you from a silly premise, to a touching story about our desire to feel connected and cared about. Makes me all weepy-esque.
I've been ambivalent about seeing this movie. I will probably wait until it comes out on DVD or Netflix because I save my money for things like Pacific Rim and The Hobbit. :) But I'll look forward to reviews of the movie.
ReplyDeleteYeah it doesn't need to be on the big screen. But it's a funny and sweet movie. :-)
