About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a grown-up, dialogue-driven “what if” romance with a slightly magical, intimate feel; Not for you if you need big laughs, lots of locations, or fast pacing like Somebody I Used to Know.
Pros: mature, reflective romance; witty back-and-forth; cozy, dreamlike vibe | Cons: talky, stage-like setup; uneven chemistry for some; slow, repetitive pacing
