Yes, I’m on the east coast now but was there many years. They really hit the nail on the head though in capturing the place. Most people watching the movie would not know it from any other “American” type city. But there are many dead give-aways that the locals would know about.
The screenplay background and character development was amazingly accurate when it comes to setting the movie in Albuquerque, capturing the atmosphere of the town and people perfectly. It is indeed a wide open quirky kind of a place, that can be rather unlovely, with a lot of low income housing, but can also be stunning in it’s stark desert beauty, and as a new area enclave for the artistic and well-to-do. Arkin’s character as an old NY type salesman moved West, is typical of many there now.
wow ur terrible at giving reviews sweety u kinda ruined it for those who haven’t watch it, and besides give a very close minded personal perspective of it, is like the pope making a full of himself with avatar movie when he made that dumb comment
this was a surprisingly good movie, with one exception, adam’s character. she gets a business from a married guy she’s sleeping with, then flakes out and loses the business, and daddy comes to the rescue.
adams better be careful. she’s becoming a weak-woman icon. i liked the sister’s character better.
Fair enough. I never saw the movie, and I think it would take months for blood to turn as black as it looks in this clip. But almost every square inch in our house after Katrina was covered in that black mold, so it’s pretty easy for me to spot, last time I checked. But anyway, I’ll watch this film some other time. Peace

Amy Adams is ALSO in the Office, although not in as many episodes as Jenna.
