Wish it would happen for real.

Rating: 10/10 (9 December 1998)

This is a wonderfully romantic film. It is played so realistically that you feel that it could really happen, if only. Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy fill the screen with realism, both of love and the script. What a date flick, and one you would never call a chick flick. I can't believe that love stories like this don't appear that often and we have to put up all the other ones that have relationships that are destined for a happy ending from the outset. Love stories by independent film makers seem to fill that gap created by Hollywood, a filling craved by intelligent audiences.
