I KNOW, RIGHT?? Romcoms are pretty much my go-to genre! But this one is like the perfectest. Quirky characters and beautiful chemistry and GORGEOUS CINEMATOGRAPHY and heart-crushing angst and Matthew Goode?!? It is flippin' incomprehensible!
I think the only other romcom I hold in my heart with this much fondness is ... er ... The Mirror Has Two Faces, starring Barbra Streisand and Jeff Bridges. I feel like I should be more ashamed of that than I am, but come on! Geeky over-the-hill professors entering a marriage of convenience for the sake of companionship and intellectual harmony! It's like it was MADE FOR ME AND ME ALONE. Which is a pretty great arrangement, considering I sometimes think I am the only person in the world who likes it.
