What We're Watching: Laurie


Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist directed by Peter Sollett. Starring Michael Cera and Kat Dennings.

You read the book, now see the film! The film stays true to the book, veering slightly in that Norah asks Nick to be her boyfriend for five minutes. Norah helps Nick get over his recent break up with Tris while unknowingly already having a crush on him. She has listened to, and loved, many of the mixed CDs Nick has made for Tris during the course of their relationship. Nick is the perfect guy for Norah whom she meets at just the right time. Nick makes Norah realize that she doesn't have to settle for her immature, loser boyfriend, Tal. Nick and Norah embark on a quest to find out the secret location of where their favorite band is playing in Manhattan not realizing that their love for music may change their lives forever.
Dennings and Cera have good chemistry and do a great job in creating fun, memorable characters. This movie has the potential to become a teen cult classic ranking right up there with Sixteen Candles or Pretty in Pink. This film is rated PG-13.
