8/13: Chalk up Mr. Wonderful as one of the best movies featuring Matt Dillon.

He's spectacularly good. Annabella Sciorra, who lights up the room in every scene she appears in, matches her co-star minute for minute. They're both excellent when together and excellent when not together.

Mary-Louise Parker and William Hurt lend their supporting hands to keep the story lively and refreshing. The writing by Amy Schor and Vicki Polon is the chief reason why it's well-paced with a lot of twists and turns. I felt energized and looked forward to what happens next. On the other hand, The English Patient is artificial and detached. Both films were directed by Anthony Minghella.

All in all, do I think Mr. Wonderful is a '10' picture? Yes, I do.
