Movie Mania
It's six o'clock Friday evening, and you have no solid plans since you and your significant other just had a big fight. You are frustrated and feel that you just need to get out before you explode. Your solution: the movies--the only place you can escape from the realties of life for the next two hours. As you plan to leave your humble abode, you realize that you are faced with yet another dilemma about which movie to see.

Romantic movies sell because when you watch them you don' t have to worry about lots of action or excessive special effects, but these films will have you reaching for your Kleenex's and blotting your eyes. For instance, the movie The Best Man is about an innovative writer, Taye Diggs, who is scared of commitment, and when faced with the challenge of telling his best friend about a book he had written, he acts like a coward. His book titled Unfinished Business centers around his best friends and their experiences during their college years. Also within this novel Diggs makes a confession about a secret fling that he had with the bride-to-be. To make matters worse, one of the bridesmaids has obtained an
