A fantastic movie pick! Makes my all time top 10!

“Lars and the Real Girl”.
A wonderfully thought out, patiently drawn movie plot.
I’d recommend this to anyone… so I’m recommending it to you.
The movie is slightly uncomfortable, at times sad, funny, touching, insightful, and ultimately heartwarming.
I liken the edgy, cringey feel of the “Lars” situation to the movie “Little Miss Sunshine”, where “normal life” is really just what we live with, and choose to embrace.
I don’t think you will be disappointed.
One favorite part for me… (no spoiler here)… Is when Bianca (Lars’ “girlfriend”) gets a clothing store job at the mall, presumably (by extension) as a mannequin…
