![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() He "works" at a real estate company owned by his dour father, Jackie ( Christopher Walken), a compulsive critic. But we're hardly invited to feel sorry for Abe, because he is also a spoiled, petulant, obnoxious, infantile schlub. Surely these two unhappy loners could only increase each other's misery. Almost immediately, he asks her to marry him, and within a day or two, she astonishingly accepts. He asks her on a date and mistakes her refusal for acceptance. He coaxes her phone number out of her, oblivious to her extreme reluctance to provide it. Almost with a sigh, Abe asks her to dance. She is Miranda ( Selma Blair), darkly morose. No one would ever think they were sitting together. We meet Abe ( Jordan Gelber) at a wedding, during the dancing, while he's sitting alone at a table with another person sitting alone. ![]()
