I Am Sam
Summers Off
I Am Sam. I Am Not Sorry that I made Ty watch this movie. When there’s this much disparity between the audience and critic scores you know it’s going to be a wild ride. Tune in to hear Ty’s Sean Penn problems (sang in the style of T-Swift's "Champagne Problems"), the evolution of the cutest Dakota Fanning who was "the Shirley Temple of her day!", and whether or not Michelle Pfeiffer could’ve been the next Meryl. Is she too sexy for this movie? Is there too much chemistry between her and Penn? Can she help herself?! Let us be the judge and tune in and find out!
