Outside Providence: Wednesday,
September 1, 1999 Written by one of the Farrley
brothers, the duo that directed There's Something About Mary and Dumb and Dumber,
comes the comedy Outside Providence. Timothy Dunphy, played by Shawn Hatosy,
comes from a broken home, has no future and doesn't care much about school. To top it all
of, his friends are all a bunch of losers. Wait a minute. Is this the plot or my life
story? After Dunphy crashes into a parked police car, his father, played by Alec
Baldwin, sends him off to a prep school. Miramax has been advertising this movie as being
as raunchy as There's Something about Mary, but audiences expecting this will be
disappointed, since it is more about growth and understanding. The critics are divided
half are saying it's funny and clever while the other half are saying they've seen it all
before.

I have read the book and seen the movie and I'd like to say the book is
really really dirty, but it's good. And the movie was done very well, I
give it a thumbs up.

I think that this movie was great. It kind of pertains to today and
I think if you have a good outlook you should not be affend by anything
that was said in the movie..... |
