Warning: Spoilers
Romantic comedy starring Angelina Jolie. A Seattle TV reporter, Lanie Kerrigan(Jolie), should be happy with her life. The platinum blonde charmer has looks to die for and is married to the most popular of the Seattle Mariners baseball team, Cal Cooper(Christian Kane). In preparation for an interview for a morning show job in New York City, she is teamed with a past emotional interest, cameraman Pete(Edward Burns). Lanie does an on the street interview with a homeless man, Prophet Jack(Tony Shaloub), who predicts she is going to die within a week. When his other forecasts turn out true; Lanie must decide if her life has had any meaning at all. Supporting cast includes; Melissa Errico, James Gammon and Stockard Channing.

It takes a while to get use to Jolie as a blonde...its really not that damn hard to do. My favorite scene is where she is having batting practice and breaking up with her husband. Something about that batting helmet and flowing platinum blonde locks. And how many times does she have to ask "are you trying to have sex with me"? Hello, cold sweat.
