I LOVE YOU PHILLIP MORRIS
delalluvia:
Well, you guys filling out those forms will make or break the decision to release ILYPM to the rest of us in the Fly Over regions.
Write positives!

Mighty oaks from little acorns grow...this could get really big, friends!
I also loved the scene in prison when the couple were together and Steven had finagled for some romantic music to be played. While the couple danced together and their intimacy deepened considerably (to use a Prouxism) you hear the prison guards insulting each other in voiceover. It's hilarious and saddening at the same time.
Front-Ranger:
Listening to the NPR story about this, I finally found out why they called it "I Love You Phillip Morris"... because that is his real name!

I thought you guys knew that!
Yes, his real name is Phillip Morris. I think the cigarettes only have one "L" in their name, but in the book, Phillip says that people think about the cigarettes a lot when they hear his name.

Finally!
A movie advert for ILYPM on cable TV. On TruTV of all places.
