    Purple Violets Reviews:
    horrible 1 Star Review
    2008-09-23 - just could not get through this story. Boring and it just did not make sense

    GREAT MOVIE 4 Star Review
    2008-09-01 - Not knowing much about this movie, I was pleasantly surprised and it is a sweet romantic story about second chances. Def worth a watch. The soundtrack in the film is also surprisingly very awesome! Recommended!

    Ed Burns as "The Murph" 4 Star Review
    2008-08-08 - I really enjoyed this movie when I thought I wouldn't. I am a big fan of Selma Blair, and the rest of the cast looked great, so I thought I'd give it a go. It has a cynical feel to it (mostly in the beginning), so you may have to be in the right mood to appreciate it. If you've enjoyed any other Edward Burns films, I believe you will enjoy this one as well.

    Set in New York (Burns loves New York), the main character, Patti Petalson (Blair) is a writer/real-estate agent who seems to be caught in a rut. She hates her job (real-estate agent) to the point where her sarcastic remarks to a client almost cause her boss (one of those in your face, I am always right type of fellows) to lose it. Her relationship with her husband is full of bickering, forced fights about nothing, and no sex. And even though she is fantastic writer she hasn't written anything since college. One night she goes out to celebrate her best friend, Kate's (Debra Messing) birthday, when they run into their college sweethearts. Brian Callahan (Patrick Wilson) is a writer who Patti let slip away, while Michael Murphy - "the Murp" (Edward Burns) is Kate's old boyfriend who she swears to the day, cheated on her back in college. Brian is currently frustrated over bad reviews of his latest book, and Michael is a wealthy lawyer who ends up hiring Patti to help find him a new flat. From there things progress, and past feelings between these two past couples renew. The story focuses on Patti and Brian's struggle to become great writers (well, more like Patti's struggle to start writing again, and Brian's struggle to be accepted by the world as a serious writer, and not just the crime novels he is known for) and the events that bring them together again.

    I like the simplicity of the story, but to complexity of the characters. Debra Messing and Edward Burns added the humor, while Patrick and Selma added the romance and struggle of finding oneself. If this sounds like your type of movie I suggest you give it a shot!

    Edit: They use the F-word a lot, if you are not into that, probably not the movie for you.
