What’s on the Crumpled Green Post-It Note??
With all the cameo’s and NFL game footage, it’s hard to tell where the fictional “Draft Day” ends and the (just-concluded) real Draft Day begins.
Suffice to say that the multiple plot lines are reasonably suspenseful, and the movie is a fun way to spend two hours — especially if you’re seeing it with a football-crazy 14 year-old.
Secret to Life? Nah . . .
There was one, anti-climactic plot note, however minor: early in the film, Cleveland Browns’ General Manager Sonny Weaver (played by Kevin Costner) writes something to himself on a green post-it note, than promptly crumples it up.
Only much later in the movie are the contents revealed, when the post-it is recovered by his girlfriend, played by Jennifer Garner.
I was hoping for perhaps the secret to life, or at least some nugget of ancient wisdom.
Without giving it completely away, let’s just say the note’s contents are underwhelming.
