Arugula Latte

14. I saw it for the first time within the past year. It really sickened me.

It was based on a real-life "affair" he had with a high school girl named Stacey Nelkin that he had when he was 42. I can't believe he showed the world the gory details of that travesty in "Manhattan."

The worst part, to me, was the end where she is going to go study acting in London and he's trying to stop her from this amazing adventure. Why? He wants to keep f@#$ing a teen.

He grosses me out.
