Shopgirl (2005)

 'Shopgirl' is a 2005 movie based on Steve Martin's 2000 novella of the same name. It is the story of a 25 year old clerk (Clare Danes) in the glove department of the Los Angeles Sack's 5th Avenue, who finds her self present with two potential romantic suiters, a poor man her age (Jason Swartzmen) and a rich man twice it (Steve Martian). This movie is both more then that brief summation might imply, and also a delightfully simple tale. I was just thoroughly charmed by this thing. To be featured in more detail on the podcast. ***
