It’s been raining in NYC for the past three days, and I couldn’t be happier. Finally, we have some relief from this scorching summer and time to curl up with a good book. Last night I finished reading the best-selling novel One Day by David Nicholls (Starter for 10), which was acquired by Random House Films and Focus Features and is currently being filmed in the UK, Scotland and France. It stars Anne Hathaway (who I swear was born for this role) and Jim Sturgess (heaven) and is directed by Lone Scherfig (An Education). The film follows a young couple (Hathaway and Sturgess) who meet for the first time at their graduation, then meet one day a year during the next 20 years. To say I’m excited for this film’s release, which is likely fall 2011, would be a severe understatement. The novel is a two-day read and is smart, sexy and sweet. Rainy days aren’t so bad, after all.
