a most excellent movie

on the recommendation of a co-worker here in sf, i rented "next stop wonderland" a little film made in 1997, set in Boston, and starring Hope Davis (with a couple of brilliant appearances by Philip Seymour Hoffman).

what a cute movie. seriously. it was like seeing a good film and remembering what it feels like to see a good film. all the music is brazilian bossa nova. the sights are familiar but not in a gooey nostalgic kind of way. it's just a movie that takes place in boston. many scenes shot at the burren in davis sq. (one of my favorite places).

If you're looking for a good movie, or a sweet romantic comedy, i highly recommend this one. rent it TODAY!
