Another movie I caught on demand this weekend: “New York, I Love You,” a collective work of 11 short films all strung together by the idea of love…and serendipity. The roster of stars is pretty impressive—Natalie Portman (who wrote and directed one of the pieces), Cloris Leachman (what what), Shia LaBeouf, Ethan Hawke and Blake Lively to name a few. My favorite featured Bradley Cooper and Drea de Matteo as the one night stand with possibilities. I’m not sure I quite “got it” before, but that Bradley is a true star, charisma oozing from the pores. He honestly doesn’t do it for me in pap shots and maybe I was distracted by the cockiness of his “Hangover” character, but PHEW! Someone’s gotta cast him in more "dramantic" roles.
