"Morning Glory"

This movie made me feel good about knowing I can do something, and then going for it!
Rachel McAdams is Becky Fuller, the new senior producer on a morning show that is destined for doom. She is under-qualified as far as her schooling goes, but she knows her job, and is out to prove how hard she is willing to work. McAdams is her usual likable self, and even though Becky has some faults, the woman is all heart. She cares about her job, but she also cares about the people she works with.
Becky has some difficult personalities to deal with. Her two lead anchors are played by Diane Keaton and Harrison ford, and they were more than well-suited to their roles. I just wanted to take Keaton home with me, set her in the corner, and watch her like a television.
One of the more welcome surprises was actor Patrick Wilson who plays Becky's love interest. I kept thinking: "I've seen him so many times before", and yet did not know where from. You will recognize him from movies such as "The Full Monty", and "Little Children". He was very unaffected and supportive to the rest of the cast.
Do you want to feel good? Watch this!
