Little Toy Robot

This past weekend I saw Sideways, a buddy flick about two middle-aged friends who spend a week before one’s marriage chasing women and dreams and the perfect bottle of wine. It certainly didn’t sound good, but it got good reviews (and really, what else is playing now?). It was a little long and got a little boring, but so is life, and all in all my friends and I enjoyed it.

It stars Paul Giamatti, a personal favorite of mine, and not just because his father was the last good Commissioner of Major League Baseball. Giamatti, you will recall, was also in American Splendor, Cradle Will Rock, and … Private Parts?
