    Cockeyed Optimist
    Get Happy is the story of Chris Rizzi who is generally a klutz with women to the despair of friends Adam LaVorgna and Rebecca Blumehagen. But he finds Lauren Sweetzer a rather extraordinary young woman with an eternally sunny outlook.

    When Sweetzer is killed Rizzi writes a self help book putting into words her philosophy and it becomes a best seller. He also turns into a ridiculous idiot unable to grapple with anything serious.

    This film is way too long and I'm not sure what it was trying to sat. Nice cast hampered by lack of theme in the story.
