We are Lars
14 February 2009
Lars loves a doll and some of us write reviews nobody reads.

This is a film about people we know well. People who are not famous or wealthy. People who never win the lotteries. People with opinions nobody cares about. People who live and die on Sagan's dust mote pond, without making a ripple.

"Lars and the Real Girl" is a pretty piece of work, certainly not traditional Hollywood (and that's good).

The setting and characters fit well and the actors did their best to make the other actors look good. The message comes through loud and clear.

Harry Chapin said it some time ago, "Everybody's Lonely -- that's what it's all about."
