David In Indy:
Thanks for posting that review Clarissa!  :)

I've heard Adam Sandler has a gay member in his family, and slowly but surely he is becoming an advocate for the gay community. I'm not sure if this is true, but I hope so!  :D

Ellemeno:
Oh, and the Canadian Niagara Falls Japanese-esque little weirdie minister who marries them, reminiscent of Mickey Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffany's except with a beatific smile, is Rob Schneider.  :)

Ellemeno:
(And while I don't often find myself disagreeing with ineedcrayons, I loved Spanglish, and thought it did a little bit for the Hispanic immigrant labor situation what this movie did for gays.)

OK, I can see that. But I just hated Téa Leoni's character -- a white upper-middle-class mother who is so thoughtless and self-involved and insensitive and snobbish and racist that she's just about evil, especially in contrast with her well-meaning husband, bewildered kids and the wise, saintly, beautiful, perfect -- even well-dressed! -- maid. To me, there was something very mean-spirited about it.

I guess we can disagree on this one little thing.  :)

Lumière:

Cheers for the review Clarissa!  ;)
I'm gonna check out the movie when I get back here from my vac.
