Sweet, smart & funny

NO HARD FEELINGS

Directed by Gene Stupnitsky

For those of us who grew up on John Hughes' movies, the idea of a sassy young woman being employed by helicopter parents to "date" their introverted 19-year-old son may induce feelings of both nostalgia and awkwardness.

Back in the 80s, Hughes' geeky male characters got girls drunk and took their knickers, while jocks duped virgins into engaging in sexual shenanigans. You can't be doing that nowadays (technically, you shouldn't have been doing it then, either).

I'm a firestarter

Late spring is bonfire season out here in the sticks. It is the time of year when we rural types - even we half-baked, lily-livered ones who have washed up from the city - set fire to enormous piles of dead wood, felled trees and sundry vegetation that have been building up since last summer, or perhaps even the summer before.
