I was thrilled when I heard that one of my favourite books - Something Borrowed, by one of my favourite authors - Emily Giffin, was being made into a movie! I loves me a romantic comedy as well as John Krasinski (yum) and Ginnifer Goodwin - so I'm really looking forward to this one!
Here's the deal with the movie: Rachel (Ginnifer Goodwin) is a talented attorney at a top New Yorklaw firm, a generous and loyal friend, and, unhappily, still single…as herengaged best friend Darcy (Kate Hudson) is constantly reminding her. But after celebrating her 30th birthday,perpetual good girl Rachel unexpectedly ends up in bed with the guy she’s had acrush on since law school, Dex (Colin Egglesfield)…who just happens to beDarcy’s fiancé. When Rachel and Darcy’slifelong friendship collides with true love, it leads to unexpectedcomplications and potentially explosive romantic revelations. The romanticcomedy “Something Borrowed” also stars John Krasinski as Ethan, Rachel’sconstant confidante and sometimes conscience, who is busy evading the affectionof Darcy’s hopelessly love-struck friend Claire (Ashley Williams) whileharboring a secret crush of his own; and Steve Howey as Marcus, anirrepressible womanizer who can’t keep his mind out of the gutter or his handsoff any girl within reach.
You can check out the official Something Borrowed website for trailers, pictures and other fun stuff:

Tara: I was looking forward to this movie as it has both Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway. The movie was okay but I was a bit underwhelmed. I think I was expecting more considering the cast. I thought the movie would be more about a Viagra salesperson, but really, it was more the story of a man who falls in love with a women living with Parkinson's. There's a lot of nudity in the film, which did surprise me. Overall, I think this movie is better suited for a rental at home, considering all the nudity as well, hehe, but that's just my opinion.
Antonia: I enjoyed the film! It was definitely different than what was depicted in the trailers. Not a typical romantic comedy but I loved the chemistry between Anne Hathaway and Jake Gylenhaall. A great date movie or one to see with your girlfriends!
And just for something different, here is Anne Hathaway with clothes on at the Love & Other Drugs New York premiere - if you are wondering what she has on her eyes to make them look so amazing, it's NARS Thebes Duo Cream Eyeshadow - both shades mixed together.
Anyone else seen this yet? What did you think?

LOVE & OTHER DRUGS
View trailer at: www.loveandotherdrugsthemovie.com
Release: November 24, 2010
Director: Edward Zwick
Screenplay by: Charles Randolph and Edward Zwick & Marshall Herskovitz, based on the book Hard Sell: The Evolution of a Viagra Salesman by Jamie Reidy
Producers: Scott Stuber, Edward Zwick, Marshall Herskovitz, Charles Randolph, Pieter Jan Brugge
Cast: Jake Gyllenhaal, Anne Hathaway, Oliver Platt, Hank Azaria, Josh Gad, Gabriel Macht
Hathaway portrays Maggie, an alluring free spirit who won’t let anyone – or anything – tie her down. But she meets her match in Jamie (Gyllenhaal), whose relentless and nearly infallible charm serve him well with the ladies and in the cutthroat world of pharmaceutical sales. Maggie and Jamie’s evolving relationship takes them both by surprise, as they find themselves under the influence of the ultimate drug: love.
I love Anne Hathaway, I think she has great style and Jake Gyllenhaal is adorable - I'm looking forward to seeing this one! The advance screening will be next Monday - November 22 at Silvercity Yonge & Eglington at 7pm and we'd love for you to join us! Come yourself, bring a friend, just let us know! I've got 10 tickets so don't wait - leave a comment and send an e-mail - info@beautycrazed.ca - all we ask is that you don't request tickets if you aren't going to be able to make it and please note that you will be picking up your tickets at the theater so you will need to arrive between 6:30-6:45pm.
And please note that the movie is rated 14A with lots of sexual content (which is a bonus in my book)
You have to come, this is the only way that Christelle can pretend she has friends to go to the movies with...
