So long, RVA!
In this cloudy post-Oscar and pre-summer movie phase, Steve Carell and Tina Fey star in a flick that will provide an excellent activity when you and your spouse hire a sitter and go on a….you get the picture. (Bonus: If she enjoys movie-going for Mother’s Day, your mom would like it too, I bet!)
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a book in possession of a good cast of characters must be in want of filmic interpretations. However, my star rating, once lost, is lost forever.
