Day 9 — Someone you wish you could meet

[snogged]

Dear Alyson:

I feel like I've written this letter a dozen times, though I know it hasn't quite been this...formal? Or maybe it won't be...who really knows? Gosh, I'm babbling. Why am I babbling? Because I obviously can't even write a letter that you'll probably never see without feeling like a gushing fangirl.

Your portrayal of Willow got me through high school and college. Your comedic timing has made me laugh so hard I've fallen off of chairs. (Seriously. See: HIMYM - "How Lily Stole Christmas.") I've seen as many of your movies as I can, including My Stepmother Is An Alien, the American Pie Trilogy, and (painfully) Date Night. I even watched that episode you did for The Goode Family and literally bounced up and down when I recognized your voice.

You absolutely deserve respect for what you do and I positively adore you and hope that I get a chance to meet you someday.

Sincerely yours,
Ann


In other news, Nick and I watched The Kids Are All Right this evening. I must say that I enjoyed it (and so did he.) We did determine that we don't really agree with the critics that it's a lesbian movie per se. Yes, the primary couple contains two women, but on the whole, it's way more of a piece on the human condition (it references Russian literature for goodness sakes!)

What a sweet letter! I too would seem like a gushing fangirl.

I really liked The Kids Are All Right. I didn't think it was a lesbian movie at all. It has far too much of an ensemble cast for that. It was a movie that happened to have lesbians in it.

Precisely!

It was actually rather family-oriented...in a sense.
