Gimme Some Stranger Than Fiction

I finally got to see Stranger Than Fiction this weekend. Yes, I know it didn't get stellar reviews, but between the literary theme and the Britt Daniel-driven soundtrack, there was no way I was going to miss it.

I really liked it. I had read reviews that said it was similar to Momento and Adaptation, but simpler and therefore less successful. So...I went into it not expecting to have to think alot. A person can definitely enjoy it without thinking too much, but there was plenty to think about and figure out. I think the best literature, music, and film should be able to be enjoyed on multiple levels. To compose 2 or 3 successful works takes talent, and to be able to weave 2 or 3 works into one coherent work takes extraordinary skill. Stranger Than Fiction did that.
