Maguire surprised me with a date night last weekend. My favorite kind of date night that he designs: Dinner and a movie... but the movie is kept a secret from me until it starts. Tricky to pull off, but SO worth it.
Imagine sitting in a theater and having no idea what is about to start on the big screen. Listening to the excitement of everyone around you, eavesdropping for hints. I tried to guess all night, over dinner, never guessing Up in the Air. When we walked by the one sheets outside the theater, I finally saw the one sheet (broke the rules, as I'm not supposed to look at the movie posters on the way in) and said, "Oh man, that's the movie I couldn't remember that I wanted to see! But, um, I'll be fine if we're going to see Alvin and the Chipmunks."
Nice work, Maguire. Best movie I've seen in quite a while. Satisfying. Go see it.
