Late Night Netflix
The third and final movie tonight was one that I already own called, Kissing Jessica Stein. It's a strange twist on a regular chick flick.
Movie Description from Netflix:
Jessica (Jennifer Westfeldt) is a single, straight, successful New York journalist who, like most of her female friends, has had a history of dating (male) creeps. But when she answers an intriguing personal ad from Helen (Heather Juergensen), Jessica finds herself intensely drawn to her. As Jessica explores this new side of her sexuality, the two begin a friendship that ultimately leads to romance.
It's a very cute and charming movie, and I'd like to clarify that it's NOT porn. It's just cute. They show very little physical stuff, and it's mostly about discovering who you are... etc, etc, etc. (because I've lost most of the guys by now).
Definitely worthwhile to see, but don't be disappointed when you realize it's not 'Girls Gone Wild.'
Note to Brian and Snay: I saw your comments about Homicide. I don't have that in my Netflix queue, but I do have Showtime's series Dead Like Me and the entire miniseries of Vistitor's V. :)

I'm a little embarassed to admit this, but I also own a copy of that movie. It's cute, well told, and the lead is absolutely adorable (as well as being part of the Swedish royal family, IIRC).
Oh! And even if you don't put the tv show in your queue, you should absolutely take a look at the non-fiction book the book was based on: Homicide, a Year on the Killing Streets by David Simon. It's beyond incredible, and its better than any fiction I've read (and I read a lot of good awesome fantastic fiction).
