Blue Valentine

This movie had all the indie darling press but it was only the second best breakup movie behind this one that came out last year.

I liked the structure of the film but it just didn't pack the emotional punch I wanted it to. The beginning of the relationship scenes just didn't resonate with me. So if those scenes aren't going to work, who really gives a crap about the relationship falling apart scenes?

Still, I always love Mr. Gosling and Ms. Williams.

And any movie that is able to introduce me to a song as good as You and Me by Penny & the Quarters can't be too bad, can't it? You can listen to the song as part of the trailer. And you should.
