Add this to the category of Romantic Comedies I Don't Hate. Remember when Meg Ryan was adorable? I've never found Matthew Broderick to be handsome, he's always had a very forgettable face to me, but I remember Meg Ryan's heyday like it wasn't 15 years ago.
She's super-adorable in this.
Sam (Matthew Broderick) is a small-town astronomer who gets dumped by his girlfriend Linda (Kelly Preston). Devastated, he drops everything to move to New York City. His plan is to change her mind but that gets scrapped when he sees that she's moved in with French chef Anton (Tcheky Karyo). He decides to start keeping tabs on the happy couple by moving in to the condemned building opposite and building a camera obscura in order to spy on them better. He would probably be there forever, if Anton's jilted love Maggie (Meg Ryan) hadn't decided to set up her own base of operations in the same building. Where Sam just wants Linda back, Maggie is out for blood. Together, they conspire to destroy the couple's relationship.
Doesn't that just give you the warm and fuzzies? I love it when two people can bond over their mutual hatred.
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
