**An argument between two people in a quiet environment** It was an argument between two people with different personalities, one wise and the other reckless, in an environment characterized by calm and beauty of nature, whose mission is to repair the highway in Texas. I found this movie from the archives of the sites and was able to take it. It was fun. It is one of the best movies I watched in 2013. If you're only into action packed, romantic, comedy movies, and whatnot, and don't like this movie, it doesn't mean it's shit. It's just that this isn't your movie. I loved it. The comic paragraphs were wonderful and the personal psychological transformations of the hero Paul Rudd were impressive. How did a wise person who wants to work hard turn into a reckless personality after an emotional shock as a result of his beloved leaving him?.
