Larry Crowne: somewhat relevant

For something written by a middle-aged man, it was surprisingly hip.  Kudos to Tom Hanks.  It highlighted many of the generational differences between his character and the twenty-somethin’s of America.  Focusing on the somewhat capricious nature of kids today, when it rubs off on Larry and he finds his true passion, it’s a victory that everyone can enjoy. Though I’m a bit confused on the actual point of Julia Roberts’ character, the rest of the story was touching.  Not my favorite, but cute enough.
Verdict: you can wait (Netflix)
