movie buff(chapter 2)

I dont even kno what time it is but i was pgming n the soundtrack of this movie began to play so im writin this long overdue blog.
JERRY McGUIRE:
Confession:im not a tom cruise fan.infact i can barely stand him.But this movie is diff.U cant help but adore him,n every other charachter in the movie.
Story:Jerry Mcguire is a hot shot sports agent workin wid a top sports agency.He's also about to get married.Dorothy is an accountant n single mom workin in the same firm.She is secretly in love wid jerry,who dosnt kno she even exists.Everythin is goin well until Jerry suddenly suffers frm an emotional crisis.So 1 night he begins to write.He writes a mission stmt bout how the agency shud cut clients.Less money,but more attention for their clients,n distributes it in the firm.He's fired the next day.In his dramatic exit frm the firm,he challenges to start his own firm,n asks if ne of the employees wants to join him.Needless to say Dorothy does,w/o thinkin twice.But now Jerry has no job,no clients except for a outta form football player(Cuba Gooding Jr).He even brks up wid his girlfrnd. On his path to self discovery Jerry falls in love wid Dorothy n his 5 yr old son n marry's her.However the pressure gets to him n he ends up screwing the marriage.The rest of the movie is all bout how he get's his life n marriage back on track.
The movie is so great because:
1.Cuba Gooding Jr who also won an oscar for the role is awesome in the movie.
2.Tom Cruise is more than convincing as a man tryin to find his place in a cynical world.
3.The movie has some of my fav dialogues n scenes like 'SHOW ME THE MONEY!!',n zelwegger's 'i love him for the man he is,n the man he wants to b' n ofcourse who can forget the climax scene in which jerry goes to dorothy's house n gives the 'u complete me' speech.
Jerry Mcguire is not a movie to b missed.
Here's the title track of the movie.It's awesome!

SECRET GARDEN -Bruce Springsteen.
She’ll let you in her house
If you come knockin’ late at night
She’ll let you in her mouth
If the words you say are right
If you pay the price
She’ll let you deep inside
But there’s a secret garden she hides

She’ll let you in her car
To go drivin’ round
She’ll let you into the parts of herself
That’ll bring you down
She’ll let you in her heart
If you got a hammer and a vise
But into her secret garden, don’t think twice

You’ve gone a million miles
How far’d you get
To that place where you can’t remember
And you can’t forget

She’ll lead you down a path
There’ll be tenderness in the air
She’ll let you come just far enough
So you know she’s really there
She’ll look at you and smile
And her eyes will say
She’s got a secret garden
Where everything you want
Where everything you need
Will always stay
A million miles away
