As Kim Kimmel says, "It's a dick flick!" Meaning it's about male friendships.
We really enjoyed it. As the last movie we saw together was Bridesmaids, which some might call a "chick flick," I am glad we gave equal time to a "dick flick."
It stars Jack Black, Steve Martin, and Owen Wilson, and, despite that, is remarkably low key! It really is about birds and friendship!

What will we see next?
ReplyDeleteFor those of you on Facebook, which isn't me, you can apparently play a game that Audubon is hosting called Birding the Net. You can see it at the top of the current Slate.com page. I tried it but it took me Facebook and the page was temporarily down for maintenance. I bet they had too much demand.
ReplyDeleteDick flick about bird watching. Love it. Makes me wonder if Jonathan Franzen's love of birds may have inspired this dick flick.
ReplyDeleteI don't know anything about the movie, but now I'm prompted to too look into it! ;)
Seana, thanks for the tip. We have an active local Audubon group, and I have friends who know birds, so I've learned to spot a few!
ReplyDeleteJayne, it's a delightful movie, and it seems to be based on a real event.
