Tear Jerkers and Creamy Pints

October 22, 2010

Staying in with a sad sentimental movie and sweets may be a clichéd plot
point of chick flicks, but the truth is everybody needs a good cry and a
bowl of ice cream every now and again. Up the ante from Sleepless in
Seattle
and vanilla with one of these three DVD and dessert
pairings:


The
Princess + the Warrior
and Häagen-Dazs Caramel
Cone Explosion

A German film deserves a German-sounding pint
with extra crunch. From the writer-director of Run Lola Run,
the story centers around a lovelorn psychiatric nurse and a
brokenhearted bank robber who come together through a series of
unfortunate events.


The
Painted Veil
and Ben & Jerrys Peanut Butter
Tracks

The comfort of peanut butter will carry you through
this tumultuous literary tale about a doctor (Edward Norton) and
socialite (Naomi Watts) who trek into a remote village in China and turn
languishing love fervent.


After
the Wedding
and Island Farms Rocky Road
Mads
Mikkelsen (of Casino Royale) stars in this Danish film about a
man who is beckoned home from India to meet his orphanages benefactor,
but finds hes been called back by the man for a profound, heartbreaking
reason. Their rocky road is your Rocky Road.
