A lover of all things production design! :)
This movie changed my life and I love it with my whole heart. It came out at the end of the first semester of junior year when I was beginning to narrow down on my college search. At the time I was convinced I wanted to be an English or History teacher. I planned on going to a local college for four years, graduate, and then return to the same district to teach for the rest of my life. It…
There are very few times while watching movies where I find myself speechless due to the production design. I may find myself enjoying or impressed by a set, but rarely am I able to step back and not be able to find a way to make it better in one way or another. (Not trying to be full of myself!

As can be seen in the movie, their divorce was not the kindest and so Adler based the characters of Barbara and Oliver on my grandparents! While my grandma and grandpa didn’t get to the point of trying to murder each other, it…
I really hated this! Going into this movie I knew I most likely wasn’t going to like it, but I was thinking more in the 2-2.5 range. Little did I know that I just really didn’t like this. I can see how people found it funny, but for me it just gave me THE WORST second hand embarrassment that I’ve had in months. I had to keep pausing and looking away because I was so uncomfortable in some parts that…
