#Amour et Déconnexion

The stars of this movie Mischa Barton and Sean Faris are appealing both better than the average TV movie quality cast. Mischa Barton looks fine here - hope she gets more good TV movies and her career keeps on the right track back to A list again.

The story is quite good not something you have seen before and not the usual silly contrived TV rom com thing.. Getting away from technology cell phones etc for a while is quite something to consider for everyone these days. Her quest for a house is realistic too.

Worth one watch.

Rebecca and Matthew Jones, a newly married couple, are facing minor financial challenges. Rebecca yearns for a new home, tired of apartment living, while Matthew is hesitant about moving into a house. They each have their reasons. After some circumstances and encouragement, they decide to go "unplugged" whenever they're together-no electronic devices-to rediscover their relationship's roots. This journey helps them reconnect on a deeper level, reminiscent of their pre-marriage days when life, work, and social media weren't distractions. They face obstacles due to missed opportunities from putting their phones down, but their love triumphs over media distraction and instant gratification, ultimately fulfilling their dreams.

The theme captivated me, offering a unique narrative that kept me engaged, anticipating the plot's direction.

I noticed they refrain from kissing on the lips, possibly due to one of the main actors having a personal pact, likely the actress who doesn't frequently appear in movies or shows. Perhaps this choice stems from a spouse's preference, understandable given her past prominence, notably in 'The OC', despite her subsequent career challenges unrelated to her own efforts. She endured harassment, stalking, and abuse, unfortunate realities of Hollywood's darker side. Her resilience is commendable amidst such hardships.

Wow! For once in a very very very long time... finally a good clean movie! No sex scenes! The main couple is married and it's a very sweet movie. I really enjoyed it. At first I wasn't sure it would be good, but I got captivated by it when they decided to unplug. I usually love Thrillers, but this time I opted for this Romance and I'm glad I did. If you are one of the few people left who don't like watching raunchy immoral movies, then this is a great one for you to watch. You can watch it with kids of any age, but it is a nice movie to watch with your husband if you're a female, or with your wife if you are male.
