Now if only USA would print it and rent it out on Netflix! Actually, it was so good I may just have to purchase it (if I can find it) and add it to my collection. I've never seen Harvey Keitel in such a moving role. Joshua Jackson also played out of his norm and really has proved himself to be quite the up and coming actor. This type of romantic comedy is a good genre for him. The two together were a splendid pair of both comic and dramatic affect. I especially liked the scene where Weldon and his gang of Italian buds take Jeremy home from the bar, after a few too many drinks, and act as though they are dropping him into a lake, feet bound and arms tied to a tire rim. Then the town's priest proceeds to baptize Jeremy (in the very shallow pond as it turns out to be) although he's already Jewish. Very cute.
