I would rate this movie a 9. It is a movie about pain and moving through it. There is love thrown in the mix but what was nice about it was that there was no bedroom scene. The main character is an author who wrote about his personal loss of his wife and how to move through it but it is all a lie as he will not face his own fears head on. Then you have the girl who is a bit quirky with her really cool flower shop. She is like a breath of fresh air and not pushy or needy. Her van is cute. What got this English degree was her love for words (poppysmic) and special notes on her flower cards. (Love her graffiti words!)
It takes place in rainy Seattle, Washington so you will get to see the sites like the Space Nettle and the place where people leave their chewed up gum. I had seen something about this somewhere and so it was cool to see it as a backdrop in the movie. Oh, it isn't gray movie due the rain because there are sunny days too.
This is a must see movie. It is enjoyable. Aaron Eckhart is becoming a favorite actor. Beautiful story. I guess it is a chick flick or a love story but I think it a bit more.
