I watched TWO WEEKS NOTICE last night starring Sandra Bullock and Hugh Grant. Bullock plays an attorney who is into alternative lawyering and she is espousing causes that run counter to the big development plans of millionaire Hugh Grant. In one scene, Counting Crows' "Big Yellow Taxi" was played after the scene established that Bullock is into the preservation of historic and culturally significant buildings/places.
The song played well to the jaunty and bouncy nature of the film. By the way, the film has great dialogues and some very natural acting from Bullock and Grant (who plays shallow cads to perfection), but overall, the director does not seem to know how to end the story. Its like an extended sitcom.
