It was in this film that I discovered Hugh Jackman. I saw "Paperback Hero" at a film festival in Los Angeles and promptly fell in love. At the time, I declared Hugh the next Mel Gibson. While he hasn't reached that stature, he's done some good films and made his mark on Broadway in "The Boy from Oz," which I'm pleased to say I saw. He is an awesome performer.
Hugh's great charisma and sexiness helps this light story of a macho male who has been writing romance novels under a pseudonym and convinces a woman friend to impersonate him. The film was done in Australia so it's quite interesting as far as the setting and the other actors.
I'm not sure if this film received widespread distribution here in the states, but it is delightful.
