The 40 Year Old Virgin (2005)
The 40 year old is not a virgin
Spoiler alert The 40 year old man is actually the kind of guy who has had sex with prostitutes. He is not a nut job like a real 40 year male virgin would be. What his problem is, is mostly bad luck. He rarely got a 3rd date with a girl and never was able to go all the way. He has come to the point in life where he has given up on non-professional sex partners. If you are interested in seeing this movie based on the title, it may be a waste of time. On the other hand if you like Steve Carrell and some of the other guys who took part in making this film, then you will probably enjoy this movie. Instead of hiring someone to write a screenplay they improvised. The plot is Carrell tells his poker buddies that he has never scored. They feel sorry for him and try to help him get laid. He does not actually say anything about the prostitutes , that is something he does not want to talk about. The comedy comes from his friends do not actually know why a man succeeds with a woman, but they think they do. Carrell meets a woman who wants some male companionship and becomes her friend. He does not try to seduce her and winds up having sex with her.
Amanda Knox (2011)
A movie they can't show or they might get sued
This movie pretends to be a true story but there a 5 things in it that are not only false, they are things could get the screenplay writer sued for libel. To avoid making this a spoiler, I can't go into detail. right now this case is under appeal, and most people who know about the case expect her to be acquitted. What happened was the case that prosecutor Mignini presented was a work of fiction. The reasons why Amanda Knox was convicted are secret, therefore we may never know the true story this movie was based on. The trial scenes were shot inside a real Italian court room, so I guess a deal was made with the producer where we will let you use a courtroom if you agree to insert these 5 things into your movie, and don't ask questions about it. This is too bad because there were many people who appear to have put in a lot of hard work to make this a good movie, and it probably won't ever be shown again because of the controversy. I hope that can re-edit this movie and add some new footage, and turn it into a comedy.
