Stranger Than Fiction 10/10

Every once in a while I sit down to watch a movie that I figure will be just another enjoyable, funny flick and I get something else entirely. Something much more meaningful and significantly benevolent to my heart. About Schimdt was one of those films. And this is another one. I LOVED this film. Everything about it. Why pick it apart and fritter around with cinematic details. It's like a Charlie Kaufman story with less ego and much more heart. Emma Thompson was incredible. Will Ferrell was unaffected and played a totally accessible, vulnerable character. Dustin Hoffman was Dustin Hoffman. I loved this film. I LOVED IT, LOVED IT, LOVED IT.
