I just caught this one on cable last weekend. It wasn't a bad little film. Gwyneth Paltrow is always a delight, IMO, and Ben Affleck is a consistently good actor. The plot has been worked and reworked a million times, but this story has something of an original twist.

The soundtrack is excellent, too.

Sliding Doors is, indeed, an excellent film. I'm glad I saw it right after it came out, not really having seen her in much. She's not as real to me anymore, after all of the media exposure.

I've seen a couple of other films with the same type of plot as Sliding Doors. The one that stands out in my mind is Me, Myself and I, starring Rachel Griffiths (whom I LOVE.) It's not as much of a love story, but it's a great movie.
