Confessions of a Shopoholic

Rebecca Bloomwood, Isla Fisher, could be any of us girls who like to shop... big designers, big purses, big shoes, and big debts. The switch here is that Rebecca, a journalist, writes financial advice for "dummies" in Confessions of a Shopoholic, a comedy based on Sophie Kinsella's series of books*. Isla Fisher could double for Amy Adams and Hugh Dancy, Rebecca's boss and heart throb, is cute and sexy. Joan Cusack and John Goodman play her frugal parents. And don't miss Lynn Redgrave's "run in" with Rebecca in the ladies room. This was worth the ticket but less depth than the aforementioned He's Just Not That In To You, and certainly do-able on DVD.


Check it out...Nesmith Library has eight of Sophie Kinsella's novels, most in both print (F KIN) and audio book (AB/CD KIN).
