Quotes:

Reggie:I wanted to go out with you, Myra Smuldanski, because I wanted to go out with YOU. You're attractive. And extremely witty, and very sharp. And you have a strength and a drive that I've never seen in anyone.
Myra:[sarcasm] Are you shopping for a girl, or a GEO 'Metro?'

Love, Ludolow

I will start off by saying that this film was amazing. It made me laugh, it made me cry, and it made me feel "warm and fuzzy inside." Movies like this do not come around very often.

"Love, Ludlow" is about a woman, Myra, from Queens and her "relationship" with a sweet mid-western man from her work, Reggie, and how she has to deal with her troubled brother, Ludlow.

This film never once had a moment when I wondered about a character's motivation, or if something was truly necessary.

Simply put, this is a beautiful, touching film that will stick with you for a very long time.
