    I don't avoid RomComs because I lack sensitivity. I avoid them because they're routinely bad cinema.

      Holy crap, that got dark in a hurry.

      Not for the faint of heart.

        Love At First Sight did not feel like a routine RomCom.

          I'm probably guilty of judging it by the title alone.

            • OK, we just finished the Ripley series. Videography was mesmerizing and production was top notch. Andrew Scott was amazing. Perfect depiction of a sociopath.

              I am embarrassed to admit that around episode 2 or 3, I turned to my wife and said, "You know what? This series reminds me of a movie: The Talented Mr. Rip... Oh duh."

              Spoiler for spoiler:
              The one thing that bugged me is the ending. We kept yelling at the screen for Marge for the detective to get a clue. But I guess there is a whole series of Ripley novels, so he won't be caught for a while. If ever.

She's never seen a Quentin Tarantino movie or a Martin Scorsese movie. And she hasn't seen any of the Godfather movies. So, I end up watching Outlander and Bridgerton with her.

                  Ha!

                  I had totally forgotten about that movie, which I remember liking.

                  We need to watch this series.

                    I'm two episodes in and am just learning that the guy in the show is actually the real life guy who was stalked.

                      I didn’t discover that until we had finished the series. Mind blowing.
