Random Rental: Love Stinks

In high school, I played number one singles for my tennis team. So, you can imagine my awe when Pete Sampras arrived at the World Poker Tour 5th Annual Invitational Tournament and took a seat at my table. Yessss! But I stayed calm. I followed card-sharp extraordinaire Jennifer Tilly's advice and trusted my intuition. Could this be why Pete busted out before me?

Ha. Like he even cares.

Anyway, it's fun to play with a bunch of guys. You know that at some point they're going to get a li'l raunchy. We were about an hour into the game when folks started asking about Pete's hot blond wife, actress Bridgette Wilson. Conversation immediately turned to one of her best movies, the unromantic romantic comedy Love Stinks. A lot of crazy, girlfriend-goes-all-Fatal Atraction-psycho-on-cold-footed-boyfriend kinda stuff happens in this L.A. story, stuff that had the grown men giggling like schoolboys.

"I've had stuff like that happen," Sampras said, as he turned a little red and clarified that "stuff" like that happened before he was married—that you don't marry and make a family with the girl who pulls "stuff" like that.

For a taste of that "stuff" he's referring to, rent Love Stinks. I'd forgotten how great it is. French Stewart kills. Vintage Jason Bateman will soften the depression you might be feeling in this post-Arrested Development world. And Bridgette—well, she has great taste in husbands and movie roles.
