P.S.I Love You is Irish writer Cecelia Ahern's first novel,
published in 2004.The book reached #1 bestseller status in
Ireland (for 19 weeks), the United Kingdom, the United States,
Germany, and the Netherlands. I have labeled it the sleeper
film of 2007.
PS I Love You premiered in LA on Hollywood Boulevards Graumann
Chinese Theater on December 9TH 2007. The event was attended
by the main cast members and received fantastic reports,
emphasizing the build up to the big launch on that took place
on December 21st.
Directed by Richard LaGravenese, this movie deals with
A young widow who discovers that her late husband has left
her 10 messages intended to help ease her pain and start
a new life
Ms. Swank [Holly Kennedy] plays Holly Kennedy, a 29-year-old
New Yorker who, shortly after the story takes off, becomes
a widow. Her husband, Gerry [Gerard Butler), however, doesn't
fully disappear. Instead he visibly lingers in her apartment,
he seems less like a ghost than like a manifestation of
her grief.
When we first meet Holly she is emotionally devastated by
the death of her husband Gerry from a brain tumor and she
does not want to keep living without him.[They grew up as
childhood sweethearts and everyone thought that they would
stay together forever] A little later though, on a trip to
her mother's house, Holly picks up a mysterious package that
is addressed to her from Gerry. It contains 10 envelopes with
notes that he wrote to her to be opened on the first of every
month starting the month after he died. It seems that Gerry
knew about his upcoming demise and he wanted to leave something
for Holly.The letters are thoughtful, and range from the exotic
to things to help Holly get her life back on track. Each one
ends with the novel's title phrase, "PS, I love you". With
the help of her friends Denise [Lisa Kudrow] and Sharon
[Gina Gershon], Holly finds a way to keep going even when
the one thing she loved more than anything else has stopped.
So there are three mysteries: the mystery of the arriving
letters, the mystery of mom Elizabeth's emotional health
and the mystery of Holly's future.
Unfortunately for Swank, she is not at her best. Maybe we
expect too much after her previous two Oscar performances.
Her lines, and the overall plot, are not up to what she
had in the past. Nevertheless this is still a remarkable
performance that shows her versatility and her commitment
to performing a broad range of roles.
Lisa Kudrow flat out steals the show playing a brutally
honest man-hunter in a world where honest man-hunting is
not necessarily politically correct. Her performance was
uncanny.
Even with the obvious blunders in this film,I believe
that this may be the sleeper film of 2007. It may never
win an Oscar nomination but it is such an enjoyable movie
to watch and the choreography was excellent.
