It's actually Chris O'Donnell and Minnie Driver. :D I own a copy, as it was one of my favorites at the time. I wonder if you'd still find a copy at Best Buy, or a larger video store like that.Quote:

No Best Buy here in the boondocks. :crying I'm going to try an Amazon search when I get home. One of your favourites, Broadway? Does it stick to the original story?
Currently reading "The Handmaid's Tale" by Margaret Atwood. It's my fourth book of hers, I believe.
She's pure brilliance.
Just finished The Falls by Joyce Carol Oates. Amazing, easily her best work since Blonde. I am currently reading Case Histories by Kate Atkinson, which seems very promising so far.
Other holiday reads:
Just One Look by Harlan Coben (great pace, very much a pageturner)
Trading Up by Candace Bushnell (very Judith Krantz-y, but I did enjoy some of the observations the author makes about the New York social scene. But the heroine was very unlikable, and it's not exactly well-written. Still, a fun beach read I imagine.)
The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold (wonderful)

I finished Divison in Death - JD Robb last night. Enjoyable as always. Then I picked up Too Much Temptation by Lori Foster. *whew.. fanning myself* It was quiet um explicit and thoroughly enjoyable for a light, brain-freeing read. I finished it about an hour ago. I couldn't put it down.
I finished Odd Thomas. It was...not bad. Not bad. I'm still not a Koontz fan, but I liked this one and Life Expectancy.
ETA: I'll be returning either to Quicksilver or Digital Fortress.
I'm 70 pages into Andres Dubus III House of Sand and Fog, and it's a page turner for me. I haven't seen the movie though we own the DVD. I think I'll watch this weekend once I have finished the book.
Oops.. just coming back in here.Quote:

I haven't watched it in quite a long time, however. Foggy memory might be at work here. :nod
I just finished reading the latest installment of the Cirque Du Freak by Darren Shan series.
Now I'm going to start reading Memoirs of a Geisha. :) I've heard it was good and I'd like to read it before the movie comes out in December.
