...night, he is wildly enthusiastic, proclaiming his love for Ben with ferocious bear hugs and many "I love you, man"s. Anna he waggles his finger at, telling her, "And you. I don't love you yet, but I will." (This might be a threat.) Her eyebrows arch delicately, conveying not just mild horror but consternation over her own reaction. She knows she's too cool to be ruffled and jealous, but she can't help herself. Thanks to boldly truthful moments like this one, along with highly naturalistic and often hilarious dialogue and a trio of appealing co-stars...

...sports bars and hope one of them has this fight on along with the Celtics game. Manny Pacquiao, the pride of the Phillipines, is currently considered the best pound-for-pound boxer in the game right now, after his victories over Oscar "Golden Boy" De La Hoya and arch rival Juan Manuel Marquez. The underdog in this fight, Ricky Hatton, pride of Britain, has endured legions of fans with his brawler-style and charisma in the ring. He's been a rising star in boxing, but needs to prove he's more than just a fluke after being absolutely obliterated...
