i recently buy this movie with a bunch of other laserdiscs from ebay . usually and i be into war and action movie but occasionally i enjoy romantic comedy . if you be bore by today special fx film and high gloss romantic comedy you should check out shop around the corner on a quiet evening . what i like about the movie be that the character have a lot of decency . there be nothing fake or pretentious about them . take mr. matuschek for example represent when he find out that his wife be cheat on him with one of his own employee he try to shoot himself . not just because of the humiliation but because he have be unjust to the character of stewart . ( ok and weired example . ) yes and the focus of the movie be narrow and the plot be predictable . yet still and i like it a lot . if you like notting hill then you will like shop around the corner . in fact and hugh grant remind me a lot of jimmy stewart .
