...person, surprisingly, Jenny McCarthy comes across as corn-fed cute rather than overwhelmingly beautiful. She has a common touch, and a woman even slightly more beautiful would struggle to connect as she does. When McCarthy meets a mom, when she spits forth a stream of profanity and common sense - the foulmouthed comedian from Chicago never far from the surface - she is there as a mother, not as a celebrity or starlet. That's what got her there, but that's not who she is once she's there. She speaks to so many frustrated, despairing mothers of autistic children because...

...ever try to make your own moonshine? I did, and it's harder than it seems. I started with George Washington's recipe for rye whiskey. I reduced it to make it with a pound of rye and a pound of corn. It was hard to do, and I made a mess.

...result was a candygram filled with high fructose corn syrup and reviled by reviewers; the movie rated an abysmal 15% on the Rotten Tomatoes poll of critics. To Jim Slotek of Jam! Movies it was "a rom-com monstrosity"; Entertainment Weekly's Lisa Schwarzbaum dubbed it "Crap, Actually"; and virtually every other reviewer approached Valentine's Day as if it were VD. But look: if audiences followed critics, the weekend's top movie (100% on Rotten Tomatoes) would have been American Radical: The Trials of Norman Finkelstein. Marshall can trash-compact those notices and frame his royalty checks. The film...
