There are so few good movies being made these days.
Must Love Dogs is one of them. It's a strong enough story that it even overcomes the nowadays obligatory sideline presentation of the homosexual lifestyle as being normal and acceptable.
I've loved Diane Lane ever since her role of Elizabeth in Hardball, and John Cusack has been growing on me ever since his role as Ed in Identity. The chemistry between Diane and John in this movie is what makes it click. Even while the characters are struggling to learn about themselves and their relationship, the audience can see it and it makes you root for them even harder.
And the "outtake" snippets at the end are an absolute hoot!
