About
You may like this if you enjoy understated relationship stories with offbeat premises and a bittersweet tone, in the vein of It Must Be Heaven or One Fine Morning; Not for you if you want fast-moving drama or high stakes.
Pros: gentle romantic setup; warm human touch; intriguing statue premise | Cons: light on urgency; very understated pace; limited plot detail
