Somehow, unaccountably, I have managed to go nearly twenty-four years (or, well, only five years, it came out in early 2006) without watching Imagine Me & You. But now I have finally seen it! My thoughts are thus:

+ It is SO ADORABLE, oh my god, I have had it pitched to me as a queer film with a happy ending, but no one mentioned to me that it is radioactive levels of TOTALLY ADORABLE.

+ I liked Cersei a bit, but somehow I missed how completely smoking hot Lena Headey was. Wow.

+ I know that the film is all about ~true love~ and ~eyes meeting across the room~ and ~love at first sight~ and they sold it quite well and everything, but -- I can't help thinking that they all might have saved themselves a lot of grief if they'd had a way of framing all of this as, "Hey, you're my best friend and I adore you, but I've made the sudden discovery that I'm also into women, or at least this woman; I would love to, with transparency and lots of communication, also date her in addition to being happily married to you!" I mean. I doubt many movies would go there. But I am all for functional poly as the solution to this sort of romantic comedy problem.

+ I'm going to have "Happy Together" stuck in my head for the next ever.
