Coffee and Film

A Lot Like Love is wonderful romantic comedy, only it’s not very romantic and it sure isn’t very funny.

The movie traces the relationship of Oliver (Ashton) and Emily(Amanda) who meet on a flight from LA to NY seven years ago. Each of them declaring that they couldn’t be more wrong for each other. Life keeps bringing them back together over the next seven years, but the timing was never right.

Along the way, they each gain and shed a few other partners, he amasses a fortune and loses it in a high-tech diaper supply business, she becomes a photographer.

As the time passes by they turn from casual acquaintances in trusted friends who can say anything to each other.

I found this movie quite refreshing and something altogether different.

I’ll start by describing my current film set up. I have a Zone free Samsung DVD player and a multisystem Sony TV. All this is further enhanced by Yamaha home theater system.

All this means I can see movies from all over the world. I watched the movie Around the wolrd in 80 days on the DVD player connected to the multisystem TV and Home theater system.
