This song was at the very end scene of Funny People. Great movie. I love Adam Sandler's character. Seth Rogan too. Homeboys can act. As each movie tends to have a moral, this movie was about staying true to yourself. Going with your gut instinct and wearing your heart on your sleeve. Awkwardness and vulnerability. I would say this is a very dark romantic comedy. I enjoyed how serious of a portrayal Sandler had to become with the character. His performance blew me away because it made me think that he was trying to send a message out to people. Mostly about life and how we need to just sulk and then pick up the pieces. Find humor in the most bleakest of times. I definitely think that this movie is underrated by some of the friends I've spoken to. Also, Leslie Mann was a great actress to play alongside Sandler. And I'm not even taking into account that she's Judd Apatow's lady here. She played the underappreciated wife/mother/old flame character well. She showed heart and gave funny men on or over 40 a half-master, wink. I think her character should have left her asshole husband though. But then again, I didn't expect her to go with Sandler's character because she forgives cheaters, i.e. her husband. One last thing - I really love the faces Mann makes. She has these certain emotional reactions to things that no one else does. I'll have to find a photo still of one of the faces and post it up here. I dunno. I give this movie a rating of: It was worth the 186 minutes. The movie brought a tear to my eye and laughs. What else could be better?

Doug Benson's Medical Marijuana Tour
You might know Doug Benson from his portfolio of work on VH1, The Marijuanalogues, and his deeply moving and also hillarious medical marijuana com-umentary Super High Me.
Benson is back with the Medical Marijuana Tour October 1st-13th. The tour is 13 days and 13 medical marijuana supportive states of guaranteed laughs, special guests, and many HIGHlights.
If you go to one of his shows you should consider yourself lucky you have the money! ($20) And you should probably have a pre-game puff session. Don't forget to make sure you bring all your papers. Both, the legal medical ones and the ones you roll with. Orange slow burn zags preferably.
If you can't make it to the MMJ Tour like in San Francisco, then you can catch Benson before his tour:
If you can't afford tickets because you're broke like I am and have no paying job then you can find his "I Love Movies" Podcast Online here!!!
Don't forget to follow him on Twitta!! @DougBenson
