Movie of the Month:

So, the first ever Movie of the Month is "Away We Go" with Maya Rudolf, John Krasinski,a handful of amazingly talented and hilarious actors, and directed by Sam Mendes, who has also directed "Revolutionary Road" and "American Beauty."

This movie is crawling with famous actors, from the wonderful Allison Janney as Verona's (Maya Rudolf) eccentric boss from Chicago, Lily, and Jim Gaffigan as her husband, to Catherine O'Hara and Jeff Daniels as Burt's (John Krasinski) "loving?" parents. The actress who really stands out in my mind is Maggie Gyllenhaal as LN. Her performance is incredible. She makes me honestly believe that she is an insane hippie. Her family sleeps in one bed, hates strollers, and are pretty much giant assholes. She is one of those disgusting characters who you can't stand from the moment you see them on screen.

While the humor in this film is evident, it doesn't take over the theme of the movie, which to me, is that, really, home is what you make it. And that you can't worry about what kind of parent you are going to be. You jut have to hope you're a good one.

All in all, this was an adorabley sweet and funny movie. I would highy recommend you see it in theaters. That's all!! Oh, and be wary about te very first scene. :0
