Although it was tops at the box office last week, we haven't seen
He's Just Not That Into You yet, so we'll have to trust a review in Cleveland's
Sun News that says Drew Barrymore (pictured) plays Mary, "a free spirit selling ads for an alternative newspaper." (
It isn't the first time that Barrymore has "sold" alt-weeklies.) In other alt-weeklies-at-the-movies news, the
Dead in the South blog notes that "a young reporter/publisher of an alternative newspaper" is one of the characters in
The Wizard of Gore, the remake of the 1970 splatter film.
