Ever see Shopgirl or read the book?

As Ray Porter watches Mirabelle walk away he feels a loss. How is it possible, he thinks, to miss a woman whom he kept at a distance so that when she was gone he would not miss her. Only then does he realize that wanting part of her and not all of her had hurt them both and how he cannot justify his actions except that... well... it was life

isnt that the one that steve martin wrote?

Yes it is! It's weird because I usually don't like movies like this one. I'm also not use to seeing Steve Martin in serious roles but I actually think he did a great job. I really liked the soundtrack and all three main actors (Steve Martin, Claire Danes and Jason Schwartzman), too; So I guess when you wrap it all up it's not too surprising that I liked the film in it's entirety.
