Hey – it’s been one week since I made my resolutions and look – I’m back, so so far I am keeping resolution number 1! On to resolution number 2, a movie review!:
WEEKLY MOVIE: Enough Said – starring Julia Louis-Dreyfus and James Gandolfini: Eva is a masseuse, 
divorced, living with her soon to go off to college daughter when she meets Albert, also bereft at the imminent loss of his daughter to college. They really hit it off, but when Eva begins working for a poet who is needy for friendship, things get complicated and Eva begins to second guess her attraction to Albert. Funny, intelligent, true to life, this is really a great movie – it’s also really hard to take your eyes off of Julia Louis Dreyfus, who is mesmerizing as Eva. Check it out!
