TL;DR –.  While it is showing its age in places, it revels in the chaos of the moment and the power of relationships.

Crazy, Stupid, Love Review –

I have been sick this week, and what I tend to do is fall back into that realm of comfort films to help me get through it all. For me, that is the Ever Afters and the 10 Things I Hate About Yous. But I was chatting with some friends about what their go-to comfort films are when one of them pointed out a blind spot: Crazy, Stupid, Love. I knew of the film, and I am sure that it got memed for a good reason. Well, what do you do when you discover a blind spot? Well, you shine a light on it, and that is what we are doing today.  

So, to set the scene, we open a very nice restaurant where couples share in the joys of love, well, almost all of them. Cal Weaver (Steve Carell) just asked his wife Emily (Julianne Moore) what she wanted, only to discover that the answer to that question was a divorce. This is just the start of what is a disastrous night for the Weaver family. But out in LA, Jacob (Ryan Gosling) might just be having a typical night as he makes a pass at Hannah (Emma Stone, but fails, but that is fine because Jacob takes a crack at nearly everyone in the bar. Later that night, Jacob sees Cal self-destructive in a bar after being dumped by his best friend. He finds pity for the man in ill-fitted clothes and decides to teach him how to talk to women.
