Silver Linings Playbook (2012)

Thought this was going to be a tooootal chick flick, but it's actually a really good rom com dram. Cooper, De Niro and Lawrence are all great in it, plus Chris Tucker shows up a bit, being not-annoying.

Would make a good double-bill with Secretary.

EDIT: watched again, it holds up. Touching meditation on mental health, communication, community in modern life. Acting, direction, editing all effectively reflect something of (what I imagine to be) the bipolar experience.
Rating: Very Good
