Baby Mama

Arrived in Buenos Aires yesterday and haven´t entirely found my feet yet after the longish flight; possibly, entries here will be infrequent as I hop around the americas for the next few weeks, but that remains to be seen!

Anyway, saw this film on the plane - Tina Fey and Amy Poehler in a clash-of-opposites comedy, with the former a career-focused 37 year old who is paired with the latter (nice, as a genuinely sweet character, unlike the type she normally plays) who agrees to be a surrogate mother for Fey´s character´s child. It´s rather fluffy, but sweet-natured...a good in-flight film. Maura Tierney (a blast from the past!) and Steve Martin (as a long-haired hippie business tycoon) also pleasing.
