P.S. I Love You (2007)

P.S. I Love You is a story about loss and recovery that has it all. There's an intriguing story with a funny and touching script (that does have some minor issues), a stellar cast (Hilary Swank, Gerard Butler, Lisa Kudrow, Gina Gershon, Kathy Bates, Harry Connick Jr., Nellie McKay), phenomenal music (the CD is worth owning) and directorial pedigree (writer/director Richard LaGravenese of Living Out Loud). Don't pass this off as just some chick flick - although you should prepare yourself for a tear or two...or three.

Romy and Michele's High School Reunion (1997)

I love Romy and Michele's High School Reunion. Mira Sorvino and Lisa Kudrow are blonde and blonder in this adaptation of a play I saw in Los Angeles in 1989 with Lisa Kudrow. It's funny and light, has Janeane Garofalo, Alan Cumming and Camryn Manheim in addition to the titulars, and the 80s music is to die for.

...The New Adventures of Old Christine, Season 1 (2005)

Despite the fact that Julia Louis-Dreyfuss in The New Adventures of Old Christine beat out Lisa Kudrow in The Comeback for the Emmy, this show is charmingly fresh and funny. Louis Dreyfuss, Clark Gregg and Hamish Linklater, a delightfully droll Wanda Sykes, and the rest of the cast are wonderful, and the scripts are fast and furious. Now that I've seen Season 1 en toto, I can agree that Louis Dreyfuss deservingly won her Emmy (although Kudrow should've won also.)
