Matt + Kate - zero chemistry

I watched this for the first time last night, and I couldn't stand Kate (or the actress who played her). She comes off as totally unsympathetic and pushy when it came to her and Matt's relationship. The scene where she was screaming at him on the street - I was thinking, how desperate is this woman that she can't give him the space he needs and find a man who is ready for a relationship?

I also noticed at the end when they show the family portrait of Kate, Matt and their baby, Kate was leaning in toward the baby but Matt was sort of standing off to the side!

Jonathan Schaech and Christina Applegate - who was excellent as Suzanne - were a couple in real life at the time, so that probably attributed to the great chemistry they had on-screen.

I never read the book, but maybe if another actress had played Kate as not being so angry/pushy I would have had more empathy for her.

Last night at the dance, my little brother paid a buck to see your underwear.
