Sometimes, I’m convinced the gods conspire to create smiles.
Just when I find myself in the mood for a new film that might fit one of my aforementioned favourite genres, along comes Greenberg opening in select cities this upcoming March 26th.
And – as if there wasn’t enough good to go around, out of the blue pops a friendly message in my inbox from the fine folks at Alliance Films! They want this girlaboutOtown to help giveaway free passes to see this quirky fun film that is sure to generate at least a little bit of semi-serious reflection among those of us approaching a midlife crossroad of some kind or another. Here is a synopsis:
“Roger Greenberg [Ben Stiller], single, fortyish and at a crossroads in
his life, finds himself in Los Angeles, house-sitting for six weeks for his more successful/married-with-children brother. In search of a place to restart his life, Greenberg tries to reconnect with old friends including his former bandmate Ivan [Rhys Ifans]. But old friends aren’t necessarily still best friends, and Greenberg soon finds himself spending more and more time with his brother’s personal assistant Florence [Greta Gerwig], an aspiring singer and also something of a lost soul. Despite his best attempts not to be drawn in, Greenberg and Florence manage to forge a connection, and Greenberg realizes he may at last have found a reason to be happy.”
So, I figure – why mess with the gods, especially when it comes to the magic of movies? Instead, why not help spread a few smiles…
To win one of 4 passes for two to see a special advanced screening of Greenberg, on Wednesday, March 24, 2010 at the Empire 7 Cinemas, just leave me a comment letting me know two things that are on your mind.
