By the Bluest of Seas

1936

★★★½ Watched

Pretty generic love-triangle romcom elevated by the stunning footage of the Caspian Sea and the thrilling scenes of seafaring.

The Mind Benders

1963

★★½ Watched

Semi-compelling concept that never really takes off like it should. Plot basically boils down to "what if a man stopped loving his wife?!?" – what a notion! Should've heightened the sci-fi elements instead of the melodramatic ones – ALTERED STATES did it better.

P.S. I Love You

2007

Watched

It's impressive that in a film with two Irish romantic leads, neither one of them is played by an Irishman.

Also they both sing, and Harry Connick Jr. doesn't.

It Had to Be You

2000

½ Watched

Cinematic equivalent of the colour beige.
