One Fine Day (1996 Michael Hoffman)

This is rather a good film, actually, we both thought in the classic Hollywood model yet unmistakably modern (that it all takes place on location and in one day, for example). And it's not edited like ping-pong, thus giving Michelle Pfeiffer and George Clooney (a descendant of Lincoln's mother, don't you know) the air in which to perform (well). The little budding friendship going on between the kids Mae Whitman and Alex Linz is another good element. With Charles Durning, Ellen Greene, Amanda Peet, Holland Taylor.

Photographed by Oliver Stapleton, edited by Garth Craven.

Loved the ending too - they both fall asleep.

Oh yeah - it was written by Terrel Seltzer (How I Got Into College) and Ellen Simon, neither of whom have any credits to speak of.
