Lars and the Real Girl


On Thursday a friend invited me to the screening of 'Lars and the Real Girl'. I daresay this is the 'Little Miss Sunshine' for the year, please see it when it opens this fall. I wasn't really enamoured of Ryan Goslings performance in 'Fracture' (let me be honest I was somewhat distracted) and I am yet to see him in 'Half Nelson' but he was golden in the character of Lars our shy bachelor who goes to extreme lengths in his coming of age. The inhabitants of the small village in which Lars lived gave a whole new meaning to the popular saying 'it takes a village to raise a child'.
