Trista M. @RT97283797 Jun 5 Besides the comedy and cuteness of the film, I found the plot quite intriguing. In attempts to separate love from lust, George cut out the physical intimacy all together. Based off his past relationships, he assumed that with lust there could be no love. Later, after finding the connection both George and Rose needed, they learned that physical intimacy is sometimes crucial for a healthy relationship. Not only for the hormonal factors, but the mental capacity in how we view ourselves. One often bases their physical confidence based off their partner’s actions and desires. Overall, it was an entertaining watch :) See more Rock B. @rockbailey7 Jan 27 I watched this for the first time ever today and loved it!! It was funny, had some very thought provoking conversations with Rose & Gregory and showed the realistic side of relationships. This is definitely going to be top 5 now on my Romcom list. Brilliantly written .👏 👏 Loved it!!!

The thing is, despite its obvious missteps and contrivances, it remains extremely watchable and I actually think it takes a profound stance about beauty and desire in light of the original film which inspired it. Instead of the transformed beauty returning dutifully to motherhood, we have a leading lady that gets what she wants, and that being something that she ultimately always had. Even though the dialogue leads the audience to conclusions in an at times uncompromising and obvious way, when you appreciate what happens between the words there is a complex implied psychology that leaves room for multiple interpretations. Don't get me wrong, it is light fluff, over done at times, but it is worth more than what many critics have said about it, which is the crux of the film anyway, some people, like some films, may only ever be loved by one person or a few people, but if that love does comes along, there lies a possibility that that love goes beyond the comprehendible, and deep into the truth of love and desire. This is also one of the few films that maintains throughout an ability to keep age out of the equation of the pursuit of love. And thank you Barbra for travelling down the beautiful manscape that is Jeff Bridges.

Granted, there is humor throughout, but the pivot from improbable plotting to a deeply moving denouement caught me off guard to the point of tears. Of course such a unique progression would have been impossible without the subtle powers inherent in Streisand’s, Bridges’ and Bacall’s performances. Sheer magnetism all around.
