I gave you the date awhile ago. Does this mean you did not mark it down on your calendar?

The simplest way to remember is it’s 2 weeks and 2 days after April 23.

Valerie Bertinelli's TV movie is overflowing with emotion

Valerie Bertinelli likes to scream.

At least when the script calls for it. And sometimes in real life, too.

For her upcoming Lifetime movie, “Love, Again,” co-starring Eric McCormack and Henry Czerny, Bertinelli, 65, delighted in digging into her emotions.

“The first scene we filmed was a crying scene, so I’m like, OK, good, just get raw right now, Val,” she told USA TODAY in a recent interview. “I found that it was so cathartic. I was able to take all of this grief that I’d been living with the last eight years, starting with my dad dying and then my mom and then (ex-husband) Ed (Van Halen) and then my cat and take all of that frustration and grief and sadness and put it into a role.”

The movie, out May 9, finds Bertinelli’s character, Caroline, trying to cope as her longtime husband (Czerny) is diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer’s and navigating a new friendship with McCormack’s character, Leo.

“There are a couple of scenes in a car where I’m trying to scream to let it out. And I literally do that, as Valerie. I’ll get in my car and just let out the biggest scream,” she says. “I can’t do it in my house because I’ll scare the cats and it’s hard to do into a pillow, so I’ll just get in my car and scream. I forgot the cameras were there most of the time.”

So how many takes were required?

“Enough to where I lost my voice the next day,” she says with a smile.

Oh yeah. April 23rd, George Lopez's birthday.

I’m not going to watch the trailer (I never do for movies I know I’m going to see because I hate to see what’s going to happen), but if you’re into such things, here it is

Wow. Looks good. I'm tearing up a little just seeing the preview . Even though this is off my usual favorite genre of murder, crime, suspense, mystery !

I’ll watch the trailer after I've seen the movie.

In fact that’s how I enjoy watching trailers. See the movie first, then go watch the trailer to see how much of the movie it gave away.
