Were there no other handsome American actors available for his part?

I have to admit to having a real soft spot for Jack Black!!

I like Jack Black, but I didn't like the message his choice as romantic partner sent.  If you're a tall, lovely model-looking blonde, like Cameron Diaz you can rope a man like Jude Law.  If you're not so tall, not blonde, kinda hippy, with big boobs, not shaped like a super model you get the Jack Black types.  :P

You know who would have been awesome in that Jack Black role - Paul Rudd.  He's a hottie, but has that self-deprecating thing that would have fit well with Kate's character.  I'd take Paul Rudd over Rufus Sewell (or Jude Law, come to think of it) any day.  John Cusack would have been good, too, but he's a little overused in that kind of movie.

Highly recommend A Christmas Memory.  The late Rev. Kennedy Shultz, my minister back at the Atlanta Church of Religious Science, used to read that aloud the Sunday before Christmas.

I hope you are able to watch it. I think it's one of those rare cases where the film is equal to the book.

I agree.  I'm not sure if it's been said, but A Christmas Memory is now on DVD.  I had been watching my old VHS all these years.
