People We Meet on Vacation
Truly good rom-com’s are a dying breed but Netflix’s new People We Meet on Vacation aims to resurrect a classic, comforting genre. The film, based on the novel of the same name, follows Poppy and Alex in dual-timelines. In the past time-line their friendship develops through yearly holidays around the world. In the current day, the long-time friends reunite for a wedding in Barcelona after a years-long estrangement.
Three dimensional characters with palpable chemistry and plenty of humour and hijinx. A perfect film to see you through the winter days.
