Romcom not

Today for the first time I saw a romantic comedy with Ed Harris and Diane Keaton called Running Mates. This disaster was a TV movie made in 1992. Ed Harris is cut out for romcoms like I am cut out for snake taming. Actually the poor guy looked like he was trapped in this movie and boy does he look dull with all this hair on. In "Running mates" he is just another blue eye pretty boy with a cheap smile. But in real life, meaning , hum, on real screen, Harris rocks. He is the best. Keaton could not offer any consolation, she was looking for the way out herself. Romcoms are not her cup of tea either, except when Jack Nicholson provides the bittersweet angry selfish male stupidity she needs to glow like an entire solar system. It worked with Woody Allen, it worked in Something Gotta Give.
