Post Grad

Tonight as I tied roughly 50 sandwich bags of trail mix together with ribbon for work, I watched this, somewhat entertaining movie. Ok, so it was a weakly written script with what should have been an entertaining cast, and only made half of what it cost to produce. The reason I rented it is because I am such a fan of Alexis Bledel. I think she is such a charming actress, and gorgeous girl. I loved watching her as Rory on Gilmore Girls and even as whatever her name was in Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, both one and two. So, the three things I liked best about this movie... 1) Carol Burnette is just awesome, and while her greatest performences seem to be behind her, the fact that she is still acting and making people laugh is pretty amazing. 2) Cute guy with a guitar, you can never dislike a movie too much when there is a cute guy with a guitar. 3) The soundtrack is rather great. Standout songs include, Always Where I Need to Be, The Kooks, Turn Back Around, Lucy Schwartz, and Brand New Day by Joshua Radin. Don't worry Alexis, even though this film might not have won you any awards, I am still a fan for life!
