...convincing as the outwardly charming, inwardly troubled hero. And though she doesn’t stretch too far from her other recent romantic roles in “He’s Just Not That Into You” and “The Break Up,” Aniston is genuinely funny as Eloise. Ultimately, the weakness of the movie is exemplified by the misleading title; Burke and Eloise never approach a plane where saying “I love you” would seem natural.

...book. Just as much as “Imperial is America,” as he writes, “Imperial” is William Vollmann. He devotes large parts of the book to his favorite prostitutes and strippers, and one particularly memorable but puzzling chapter to the break up with his girlfriend.
