PICK THREE! Tell us what you liked/loved about your favorite overlooked films. My picks:
1. Copland: Sylvester Stallone---normally I do NOT like him in films. But in this one he is a shy, sensitive sheriff fighting off crooked NYC cops who live in his town. It was a fantastic story with lots of star power with an incredible cast list from the leads to the smallest parts.
2. Enchanted April: Four 1920's era British women, strangers to one another, decide to pool their money and rent a small villa in Italy together one April. The setting is to die for and the story is heart-warming because it focuses on friendship between women even as it tackles romance.
3. Pleasantville: What happens when two teenagers (Tobey Maguire and Reese Witherspoon) get stuck in a 1950's sitcom? This film was so much better than I anticipated because it was both funny and serious. What happens when part of the town welcomes newness and discovery while others resist change?
