Quello che so sull'amore

I watched the movie and didn't catch much of it because I was so engrossed with Camilla Belle. I could not get enough of her. I could name other actresses who are just as gorgeous, but she is singularly adorable. From all angles. Sometimes from the side with her head canted slightly downwards she could be Anne Hathaway's prettier little sister. At certain moments, a more beautiful mature sibling. At all times, she's a fairy tale princess, living up to her name.

As romance movies go, I'm sure it's formulaic, derivative, and loaded with much of the usual tropes. But I don't care. Because Camilla Belle's in it, it's a perfect 10.

3 Thumbs Up!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I admit the first quarter of the movie almost turned me off to it because not only did I find out it's a tubi original (all I could think of is cheesy, Hallmark things) but also they played her character like the smart but clueless type... She is that, but not the "stuck in her ways" trope, Check 1 for not being the tireless gag we always get. They learned along the way. Two: They didn't make them clash for comedic value. (The Ugly Truth) Things naturally progressed and each party recognized and didn't shy away. Three: The conflict wasn't contrived forcing both parties revert to their older traits and ideals, they recognized the misunderstanding and though tempted to not, braved the storm anyway. Hope this had no spoilers because we all know how these end but I'll say this, it was no early 20's drama piece of ego but maturing, figuring out of things we all resemble coming out of the latter. Extra point for the soundtrack.

Let's be honest you're not here because you're looking for a masterpiece, but perhaps, something light maybe funny and romantic. The movie is pretty straight forward but is very sweet and cute. Some of the dialogue between the main characters is honest, like: be in the moment, I think there's value the way you engage to everything; is so simple which is so underrated these days. Soundtrack is lovely too.

Wonderful script strategically directed by Brian Robert's with no wasted dialogue. Camilla Belle is the mature version of Dakota Johnson with a depth that captures the interest of young and old. We need more of her. This film is far beyond streaming and well worth your time.

Didn't know any of the actors, but I was surprised at just how well they did. The story line was upbeat and entertaining. We all know where the movie is going but still sometimes we want to walk away from a movie feeling better, not dragged down. So, if you want a simple, pleasant, cute love story then this will fit the bill.
