Griffin & Phoenix (2006)

Director: Ed Stone
Writer: John Hill
Cast: Amanda Peet, Dermot Mulroney
Genre: Rom-Com, Drama

Griffin & Phoenix is another take on the timeless story of challenged love, but this one actually have managed to get the important stuff front and center. There's a lot of heart gone into making it, the leading couple is both acting well and with a great chemistry, and did I mention it's filled with heart? It can't score much on originality, but it takes back credit on knowing so perfectly well which story they are trying to tell. It's a focused and well balanced script, spending time where time should be spent rather than spreading thin.

A surpassed movie, as only 2468 people have so far seen it and taken the time voting at IMDB.
