this is one of my favorite movies and certainly one of my favorite rom coms! Cher, Nicolas Cage, Italians in New York falling in love and gossiping. it’s beautiful, so deeply funny, incredible score.
When Harry Met Sally for Italians. Showed this to one of my best friends while she was staying with me — its her first time in New York so obviously I had to show her this piece of local culture.. For the uninitiated, it’s Cher! it’s Nicholas Cage (who is inexplicably sexy in this..)! it’s 1980s Brooklyn and it’s Italian! I mean right off the bat opening track is that’s amore. The moon is hitting eyes like big pizza pies fr. exceptionally quotable, it’s silly and heartwarming, full of romantic and familial love, Nic has a fake hand and Cher has really good outfits. They have such freak romantic and sexual chemistry and its the perfect level of camp where something goofy happens and it still surprises and delights you each time.
Generally really like romcoms but this is just so fun and human and lovely! Barely saw it for the first time this easter but had to get my 4k criterion copy to rewatch asap (thank you bi-annual sale!) Anyway, tap in!
tomorrow PI.FYI launches to the public this project is the result of thousands of hours spent coding everything from scratch after I got laid off six months ago no thiel-bucks or weirdo outsider money, just a pure desire to make something fun and true to Perfectly Imperfect’s day one goal of helping people find new things from real human beings, not algorithms or AI a pure labor of love that I’ve been quietly plotting for two years and it’s completely self-funded from my (rapidly) dwindling savings account so thank you for coming along for this weird ride 🫶 let's see where it goes
