Though its romantic-comedy triangle borrows heavily from Cyrano de Bergerac, the film has more in common with Three's Company.

Sometimes sad, sometimes uplifting. This is a heady meditation on the trials of modern romance.

This sly update on Cyrano de Bergerac owes a lot to Janeane Garofalo, who inexplicably disowned it.

Garofalo is accessible to anyone in the audience (except maybe herself).

A spry and perceptive romantic comedy highlighted by the spirited performance of Garofalo's self-deprecating guise
