We Love You, Sally Carmichael!

I watched this because I am a Christopher Gorham fan. A am NOT a Hallmark channel fan and this reminded me of a pure Hallmark movie.

The homes they are in are literally spotless. And sterile. The only picture was of Jesus Christ. WTF?? Seems odd to not see photos in any home, let alone in all of them.

Even the soles of his shoes were spotless!! They matched his empty spotless kitchen.

I don't mind low budget films at all, but come on - use Command Strips and hang up some interesting art.

Also, talk about a movie that is NOT inclusive. This movie was definitely pure Utah Wonder Bread.

I know I'm going to get dinged, but it's the truth.

Funny, surprisingly fresh and charming movie about a writer, his alias and his phobias. Christopher Gorham is so talented as the star and director of this film. I took my two children (ages 9 and 11) with me to see it, and while it is not a children's movie, we all loved it. Do yourself a favor and enjoy this one.

My wife and I were laughing out loud through the whole thing, and very few movies do that for both of us. The lead male and female are both incredibly good at being comically uncomfortable, and the quirky story line (contrived in a good way) with eccentric supporting characters gives them plenty of opportunity. It's set in Utah, and there are a couple of passing mentions of Mormon this or that, but in no way is it about being Mormon or poking fun at the culture. It's just a funny "what if a popular romance series were secretly written by a grumpy guy" yarn.

As in that other, more famous, movie the author is a guy who is having personal issues and awkwardness with other people. Both are writing romance novels and in this movie the writer has strong acceptance issues with what he is successful with. Both get to slam their own work, which is a big topic in this movie and a short joke in the other movie.

The names in that movie are not big, but the casting has been done well.

I enjoyed it.

A delightfully simple, but elegant comedy where a struggling writer and his wildly successful pen name are pitted against each other (or himself). The comedy is spot on and appropriate for all ages, with the plot and acting quite stellar on all counts. This movie is not only believable, but the take home message will resonate with audiences from all walks of life.
