I saw "Here Today", starring Billy Crystal-The Comedian, the Analyze This movies; Tiffany Haddish-Like a Boss, Night School; Laura Benanti-Younger_tv, Supergirl_tv and Penn Badgley-Gossip Girl_tv, Easy A.
This is a funny tear jerker that was written & directed by Billy Crystal, who also stars in it. Billy plays an older comedy writer for a tv show. He meets Tiffany, a street singer, for a lunch date-it was supposed to be her boyfriend who had won it in a contest but he couldn't make it-and their relationship begins. Tiffanys' and her boyfriends' ends. Billy & Tiffany become good friends but they are not romantically involved. Laura & Penn are Billy's kids, who both have issues with Billy so they don't speak to him very often. Billy's wife died several years earlier and Billy is beginning to have dementia. Both Billy & Tiffany are funny but the later half of the movie gets into the tear jerking department. There are several cameos; I remember seeing Barry Levinson, Kevin Kline & Sharon Stone in brief parts.
It's rated "PG-13" for language & sexual content-no nudity-and has a running time of 1 hour &57 minutes.
It's not one that I would buy on DVD. It would be alright as a rental.
