A long bus ride and "Paper Heart"

So today I was on the bus to NYC and decided to watch Paper Heart, a documentary/comedy hybrid focusing on comedian/musician Charlyne Li's quest to find out what love is. It combines a contrived relationship* with Michael Cera and interviews with various people as to their definition of love. And while the fictitious elements were a little weak - albeit quirky and funny - the interview elements were quite endearing and left me feeling pretty good about love in a world that seems to be moving away from the notion. Worth a watch if you ever feel your inner romantic dying.


*according to an interview with Charlyne, though some sources insist the relationship was real

  1. I really loved those puppet sequences, but mostly the first and last ones. That water effect was pretty inventive.
