An awesome movie. Natalie Portman was so amazingly cute and quirky during this movie, and it was filled with really dry and ironic humor. Just the way I like it :). Plus, an AWESOME soundtrack. Basically, it's about a young smalltime actor that returns home to New Jersey for his mom's funeral. During his trip, he decides to stop taking the medication he's had to take since he was a child, and he begins to experience emotions as he meets Natalie Portman's character and confronts his father and old friends. Probably the best movie I've seen in a while, although I guess it's for acquired tastes. But regardless of whether or not you find the concept appealing, Natalie Portman gives an awesome performance and you wouldn't want to miss it.

If anyone has already made a thread for this movie, sorry. I did a quick search but none came up.

Nice feel-good movie. Lil drama, lil humor, lil romance, good performances and GREAT music (even some of my very faves of recent years).

Oh, and yeah, Natalie Portman was cute and quirky indeed. :)
