Where has this film been all of my life?!
I loved the book but actually didn’t know about the film until recently. Beautifully shot, brilliant performances and has that signature Ephron warmth.
Only negative was a Kevin Spacey jumpscare

I liked it, don’t particularly get the attraction to Jack Nicholson (sorry!) but Kevin Spacey was perfectly cast as Subway Thief! Stand out in his career, think he must still be method acting x
