On this New Year's Eve, I'm recommending a more recent film that takes place during the holiday season, culminating in a big New Year's Eve dance off for a happy ending. This movie stars Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence (in her Oscar-winning role) as two outsiders who appear a little bit crazy to other people, but find a kindred spirit in each other as they start to fall in love. This movie is a bit of a spin on an old-fashioned romantic comedy actually, or the closest thing they make to it nowadays. It also tries to say that we're all a little bit crazy on the inside, but it's a sweet, funny, well-acted romp- it doesn't really go deeper than that but sometimes that's enough. Happy New Year, everyone!
