Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

One of the true stars of this movie is the home! It is a magnificent display of the Neoclassical and, even more pleasant to the eye, the"Art Nouveau" of the 1890's and early 1900's. The film is a well done romantic comedy with lots of twists and I enjoy it for that. But, as an artist it is the settings that bring me back to it over and over. The beautiful interiors created in an artistic renaissance more than a hundred years past. The magnificent woodwork, wall paintings, and sculptures! The beautiful Architecture of Quebec! The snow covered landscapes of Canada! I get lost in this visual banquet. If you are an artist, or an aficionado of neoclassical art you should give this film a closer look.

Rather unsuspecting I started watching a movie on television, co-starring young actress Jennifer Connelly whom I knew from the Jim Henson movie 'Labyrinth'. It started playful and lighthearted, but slowly grabbed me along its weird and wonderful storytelling path. This is a film to have and to hold, it grows on you. And Jennifer and her weird sisters are spellbinding and to watch out for!

The family in Some Girls are the Taylors of Montreal...the screenwriter actually dated one of the Taylor sisters and fictionalized them into this movie...The father is actually world-famous philosopher and McGill U. professor Charles Taylor. Their late mother *was* very Catholic...and the legendary house is real- an old wooden Metcalfe Avenue mansion, in Westmount- since sold, but still there. Of course, this film annoys them to no end - so don't mention it if you're invited to

Just when you think you know where this movie is headed, it goes off in an unexpected direction. Michael, played by Patrick Dempsey, visits his former college girlfriend over Christmas in Quebec and quickly becomes entwined in her family's eccentric ways. Michael's quest to rekindle his romance with Gaby pushes him to the limits of total frustration and leads to several hilarious situations involving Gaby, her sisters, her perpetually naked father, and the family dog!This plot would normally be enough for most movies, but the whole tone of the film changes when Gaby's grandmother is introduced. Granny confuses Michael with her long dead husband and the sheer strength of her performance leads the movie into a whole new and unexpectedly spiritual direction. The scenes between Michael and the Grandmother are touching and make an ordinary movie into a truly special one.
