Review of The Private Lives of Pippa Lee (2009) by Luis S — 18 Jun 2009
It may be contrived, a little conceited, and uneven at best, but there is an undeniable charm to the film. Remove the ridiculous drug-addled montage and some of Blake Lively's weaker moments, then restructure, and dimensionalise Keanu & Winona's wonderful parts, and it would be really great.
Also, I don't understand why Miller didn't cast another actor as the young Arkin - was it supposed to suggest his older age relative to Pippa? Seemed a little incongruous to me. Anyway, bear with it.
