Frack and I adore the movie 13 Going on 30. Sure, it’s a remake of Big, but it’s the girl power version. It’s the mark of great casting when you can’t think of anyone else in a role, and I have to say that Jennifer Garner is perfect as Jenna, the 13-year-old so disgusted with her life (and herself) that she wishes herself into a 30-year-old über-bitch magazine editor. Thankfully, that über-bitch becomes both human and fun because the 13-yo brain is now running things. What woman my age didn’t want to run to the floor and do the “Thriller” routine again? Or snuggle up to cutie-pie Mark Ruffalo? And there’s that cute deleted scene where she “goes all West Virginia” about her mama.
Plus, she can kick your ass either Alias-style or Elektra-style. You’ve been warned.
In real life, she’s Mrs. Ben Affleck (lucky!) and has an adorable daughter, Violet. Oh, and one on the way. Double lucky.
She has way too much going for her than anyone should be allowed!
