Anything Else (2003) 7/10

Starring : Jason Biggs, Christina Ricci, Woody Allen, Stockard Channing
Director : Woody Allen
Running Time : 108 mins

Jerry Falk (Biggs) is a budding comedy writer who finds life difficult as he is one of those people who hates to end any sort of relationship, leading him to be involved with an agent who is laughing stock in the business, a therapist who won't talk to him, and a girlfriend who won't have sex with him, but when he meets another comedy writer, (Allen), he begins to become more assertive in his decision making, leading him take some life altering steps.

I'm not a big fan of Woody Allen, but this was actually quite entertaining. Ricci is a little annoying, but she’s supposed to be, and Biggs is clearly just a young Woody Allen. Worth having a look at if you like movies with a lot of dialogue, and this has mounds of it.
