Love Happens is the new Jennifer Aniston movie and, as it happens, her fourth to hit theaters in the past 10 months. This time she plays Eloise, a Seattle florist who drives a quirky van and wears cunning hats. As per usual, Aniston has bountiful hair and a fretful mouth and is available for love. The object of her tepid affection is Burke (Aaron Eckhart), the best-selling author of a self-help book called A-Okay!. Burke has specialized in trying to cajole others out of grief since his wife died in a car accident three years before...

...Money" blares from a set of speakers, the former head of the Chicago Public Schools pounds the blacktop, alternating between playing intensely and walking off to take calls on his BlackBerry. Almost none of the other ballers know who the white dude with the salt-and-pepper hair is, and even fewer expect him to last long in the tournament. And yet his team goes on to win every game (20-10, 20-6, 18-9, 20-11, 20-10, etc.) and eventually the grand prize...
