Like Sunday, Like Rain

Reggie is a highly intelligent lonely 12 year old boy living with is overwhelmed mother in a mansion in New York. He doesn't have a lot of friends and seems bored to death with life. Eleanor is a 20 something from a poor background who just broke up with her loser boyfriend. She stumbles into the "live in" job of being Reggie's nanny while Reggie's mom goes to China for a few months. Reggie ditches the plan for him to attend camp during the summer and Reggie and Eleanor spend the summer together and well... develop strong feelings for each other. Though a little slow sometimes I enjoyed this very much. The actor that played Reggie was wonderful and like a 35 year old man in a 12 year old's body. Leighton Meester was quite good too. It is a simple, but good story, of people and emotions. With a bittersweet end to the story. I really wouldn't mind seeing a sequel to this when Reggie is 20.
