Ah yes, another horror film I'll add to my collection.

Jonathan Maurice

The full shiver swell of warm blushing possibility. Maybe it's just tonight and maybe that's even better.

An accurate depiction of life and humanity in both the exciting and the mundane.

So slow yet engaging. The depiction of their conversations flowed so naturally. I usually don’t like romantic movies but damn I loved this!

my favorite movie <3 just two people having a wonderful conversation throughout the entire movie it’s beautiful.

Gwendrella Geever

Such a deep movie on so many levels, a great romance movie from such a simple premise

My favorite romantic movie of all Times

Molly Claire Dungan

Such a great film with great dialogue. The leads may cause bisexual panic. That’s the icing on the cake.

The rush of fantasy warps one’s perception of reality. The idealized version of love put to screen; a screenplay that is built of dreams.

I love this movie so much, I was so interested in their conversation and it never got dull.
