You’d think that living
with four models—who are constantly dressed in evening gowns and are always surrounded by
rich guys who will buy them anything just for a chance to be in the same room—would be a
bit… disconcerting. But Amanda Pierce (Monica Potter) doesn’t mind. All she wants is to
move on with her life, forget about men (one of whom she just caught cheating on her),
and throw herself into her work (restoring paintings at the Met).
Things
change, however, when she meets Jim (Freddie Prinze, Jr.), the gorgeous fashion exec who
lives in the next building. Amanda and her roommates spend hours spying on him—watching
as he baby-sits, buys candy from schoolgirls, and does chin-ups—until they decide to get
Amanda closer to him by crashing a party at his place.
Amanda finally gets
Jim’s attention—and gets him to ask her out. But after she returns home, she sees what
looks like a murder—one that Jim committed in his apartment. So before going on a date
with a killer, Amanda—along with her evening-gown-clad roommates—go
undercover.
Head Over Heels is definitely high on my Guilty
Pleasure scale. It’s a cheesy, sappy, goofy movie filled with clichés and anorexic
supermodels doing undercover surveillance in heels, and I loved it. In fact, I was
watching it alone, and it still made me laugh out loud. It’s a good thing I got a
five-night rental—that meant I was able to watch it once or twice more before returning
it.
Kristin Dreyer Kramer has been writing in some form or another (usually when she was supposed to be doing something else) since the ripe old age of ten—when she, her cousin, and their two Cabbage Patch Dolls formed the Poo Authors’ Club. After a short career in advertising, Kristin got sick of always saying nice things about stuff that didn’t deserve it—so now she spends her days criticizing things, and she’s much happier for it.
Since creating NightsAndWeekends.com in February of 2002, Kristin has spent her life surrounded by piles and piles of books and movies—so many that her office has become a kind of entertainment obstacle course.
As if her writing and editing responsibilities for N&W.com weren’t enough to keep her out of trouble, Kristin also hosts a number of weekly radio shows: Reel Discovery, Shelf Discovery, and On the Marquee. She’s also a proud member of the Broadcast Film Critics Association (CriticsChoice.com), the Central Ohio Film Critics Association (COFCA.org), the Online Film Critics Society (OFCS.org), and the Women Film Critics Circle (WFCC.Wordpress.com).
Kristin lives in Columbus, Ohio, with her husband, Paul, and their daughter, Anna. She welcomes questions, comments, and fan mail at kdk@nightsandweekends.com.
