What I loved about 'The 40 Year-Old Virgin,' the title is the easy sell, but when you see the movie, the comedy is more free-form and more relatable.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Good comedy is ageless.
I love old movies. The '40s theatre pace is fantastic.
When you're a woman in your 40s, it's not the best time to do films, because there really aren't that many roles. Then you reach 50 and there are more roles again. Mother parts.
I've always loved the '40s romantic comedies and the idea of those mistaken identities and lovers' misunderstandings.
Women over 35 have great stories, and the actresses are there, but you can't get the movies made.
There are so few good comedy sequels. The only one in recent memory that's good is '22 Jump Street.' It's a hard genre.
When I was a kid, there was no distinction between a movie about old people or young people. It was either funny or not. It was either entertaining or not. It was either exciting or not. It was either thrilling or not.
I don't want to slam the cute and fun movies out there, but it gets old.
What I learned from this movie, 40 Days and 40 Nights: Abstinence can be a very good thing. Especially from box offices where this film is playing.
'Virgin Suicides' was such a big movie to me as a teenage girl. It blew me away.
