20 for 2010 - Morning Glory

As we move up the list to number 15 we are met by Morning Glory.



I am rather hopeful that this will be a modern take on a screwball comedy, with Harrison Ford playing a News Anchor who's quits do to the pre-ponderance of gossip on his own channel and moves to a local show.

With any luck they'll be lots of bitchiness on screen between Ford and Diane Keaton as his co-anchor, and hopefully even a love blossoming story with their producer Rachel MacAdams and Patrick Wilson. There's even Jeff Goldblum in the cast which guarantees a few "hmm, let the punchline sink in moments".



Of course all of this is pure conjecture. We know nothing about this movie but a very loose plot description and the casting. We do know that director Roger Michell and writer Aline Brosh McKenna both have good form in the rom-com sector (Notting Hill and The Devil Wears Prada respectively), so with that sort of talent on board we could be on to a good thing.

I don't trust this one! Devil Wears Prada was wonderful, but 'blame' is 90% on Meryl! And I don't trust Harrison Ford; never did.

:) so I suspect this one will flop. like every other Diane Keaton movie of the last 6 years...
