But then, Steve Zahn (check out Happy, Texas) is in it - so what did I expect? I'm not even sure how this one made it onto my Netflix queue, but it showed up on Saturday. Aggie is game to watch just about anything, so this is how we spent our Sunday evening. Talk about a bunch of oddball characters: Woody Harrelson played a former punk yogurt magnate named Jango and Josh Lucas played a porn star with relationship advice - but his scenes only appeared on the deleted scenes feature and the gag reel. There was a Chinese-American guy named Al who pretty much stole the show - as well as a Vietnamese Buddhist monk that Steve Zahn kept calling Father. I finally realized that the monk was The General from The Ladykillers (Tzi Ma) who kept swallowing his cigarette when Mrs. Munson would complain about the smoking in the basement. Anyhow, it's sort of a cute movie - but I wouldn't classify it as a romantic comedy. It's more of a screwball independent film - the kind my husband always hated to watch. I have no idea what's on our agenda for tonight, but I just might dig out my DVD of The Ladykillers or some other crazy Coen Brothers flick...
