Gigantic Mystery
I don't think many people have seen Gigantic. Before Sunday night, I had never even heard of this film despite the stellar cast- Paul Dano, Zooey Deschanel, Paul Goodman... Yes, Paul Goodman was in an indie flick.
I started to realize about 10 minutes in WHY I had never heard of this movie. It makes no sense. I mean, not to ruin it for you but at least one of the characters:
-does mushrooms with dad
-hawks up a brain tumor like snot
-wants to adopt a Chinese baby
-is stalked by a homeless man
-kills a homeless man
-studies stress in rats
-signs up for chef school in France
-enjoys creating pinatas of famous dictators
-wears adorable indie clothes and stares wide eyed
Guess which one is Zooey! But seriously, it's like they sat down and tried to figure out how to make a movie without a story line. So kooky, not enough cute.

I think our next girl date should be an outing to see The September Issue. You in, lady friend?
Yes! September Issue it is :) No more indie Rom-Coms for me.
