I strenuously object to all negative reviews posted here for Shopgirl. The movie, like the novella, gets it right. Can’t remember the last movie that made me reach for a Kleenex. That’s not why I recommend it though. I don’t know that a scene about a man taking his girlfriend to the shrink after she stops taking antidepressants would make anyone else weep.
Beautiful.
