Have You Taken Any Viagra?

"Love is like an hourglass, with the heart filling up as the brain empties."

      - Jules Renard (1864 - 1910), French dramatist and author

If you're in need of a good laugh and have the time, go see Jack Nicholson and Diane Keaton in their new movie, Something's Gotta Give. You won't regret it.

Nicholson plays an aging bachelor, Harry Sanborn, who never dates anyone over 30. While cavorting with his current fling, Marin (Amanda Peet), he has a heart attack. Marin's mom, Erica Barry (Diane Keaton), has dropped in just moments before the tragic event and provides CPR until Harry is whisked to the ER, where he ends up on a gurney in front of Dr. Julian Mercer (Keanu Reeves). As Mercer preps Harry for his treatment, he asks him if he's taken any viagra. Harry says he hasn't and what follows is hilarious.

Mercer releases Harry, but warns him that he cannot travel for awhile, so Erica gets stuck caring for him in her home. Though he's a reluctant patient and she a reluctant nursemaid, somehow they fall in love with each other. Complications arise, however, when Dr. Mercer gets a crush on Erica too, and Harry has trouble committing. You know how these relationship things go. They're almost always a mess, and this one's no exception.

Keaton is every bit as good in her role as Nicholson, maybe better. There are many comical scenes, lots of chemistry, and tenderly romantic moments. For all you gals who think older men always want a younger woman, this one's for you.
