Thank God for moderate expectations. Silver Linings Playbook was much better than I anticipated. Pat (Bradley Cooper) remains undiagnosed with bipolar personality disorder until he finds his wife in the shower cheating with a colleague from work. Pat almost kills the man. His lawyer manages to keep him out of prison by letting the state lock him up in a mental hospital.Silver Linings Playbook

This delightful French comedy made me laugh many times. The charm rests in brining together two people from the opposite side of the French social spectrum.The Intouchables
