DVD Commentary w/ SJP and Dermot Mulroney


Has anyone watched the movie with this commentary? I love it! I now watch it every Christmas after I've finished watching the movie itself.

I'm usually not interested in listening to DVD commentaries more than once, but SJP is completely charming and she and Dermot Mulroney giggle their way through the majority of the movie, cracking jokes and making fun of Meredith. They both seem likely genuinely nice people, the way they interact with one another. Also, SJP's throaty laugh is completely infectious and she gets me laughing whenever I listen to it.

"Internet troll" is not a good resume-builder. Find new interests.

Watching now. Definitely not the first time. Will not be the last either!

Sare0511 - No, haven't watched with the commentary, but I will now!

I actually gave this film to my mom for Christmas one year since she struggled with breast cancer and I consider her to be our "family stone". She totally missed the point. She didn't like the movie at all and I think my meaning in giving it to her was completely lost on her. LOL.

I love the movie and so I eventually just borrowed it from her....permanently.

I have watched it with this commentary a couple times now. So, much more charming than the directors commentary. SJP and DM seem to have had a genuinely wonderful time filming this. Her natural "digging for clams" also cracks me up.

It should've been just Dermot Mulroney. If he's any more lifeless and dull than he is on screen, that'd be the ultimate cure for insomnia that people have been looking for for generations.
