Just to make this more interesting, read the following paragraph in your head in the voice of the Movie Trailer Guy: In 1977, we got The Kentucky Fried Movie, a movie consisting entirely of segments that were takeoffs from everything to commercials to every genre of movie imaginable. In 1987, we got Amazon Women on … Continue reading
— If you loved Kissing Jessica Stein, you’ll absolutely love Ira and Abby. At least, that’s what Magnolia Pictures is hoping in their distribution pickup of Jennifer Westfeldt’s film festival rounder Ira and Abby, which follows two folks who fell in love too quick and all the affairs and misunderstandings that follow.
