Artie (2000)
Made me laugh, made me cry.
Not often enough does there come a film that can make you laugh hysterically and than one minute later put tears in your eyes, but that's exactly what this romantic comedy does. No matter how zany and crazy the antics of Artie and his college buddies get, you never lose sight of the love story that lies beneath. "Artie" is a perfect blend of contrasts, from its ability to have a really funny fart sequence share the same scene with some very touching dialog to having some very talented new-comers work seamlessly along side some very seasoned actors. The combination of rising star Seth Walther(Artie) and veteran actor Rance Howard (Grandpa) make for one of the funniest scenes in the film, for which I defy anyone not to crack up with laughter. This is a film that will make you walk away happy.
