Movie Review: Shop Girl

If you are in the right mood, this movie is great. The film is absolutely gorgeous - I don't know who the cinematographer is, but the imagery is amazing. And the characters are so sad and funny at the same time - unmistakably Steve Martin. It's very slow moving - with not much story, but still involving. It's all about the characters. If you're a Steve Martin fan - try it. By the way, I remembered the book as being much more depressing than the movie. So if you read the novel and didn't think you could sit through the whole film - give it a shot.
