    Would you care to make a case for Lady in the Water? I don’t recall a huge amount of that movie, but what’s there is not positive. Admittedly, his gall in writing a character who is destined to save the world through his art, and then casting himself in said role, left a pretty sour taste in my mouth, but I shouldn’t let that affect the other aspects of the film.

      yeah i agree there are aspects about LITW that are a bit arrogant (also how the movie critic character died), and the fairy tale backstory is a bit silly. But aside from that I really love the story of Paul Giamatti’s character, and he gives a hell of an acting performance. It’s worh watching just for him. His interactions with all the characters around the apartment complex are also pretty amusing. Jeffrey Wright, Bob Balaban, Bill Irwin, and more.
