What Happens Later
They missed their connection.
Two ex-lovers get snowed in at a regional airport overnight. Indefinitely delayed, Willa, a magical thinker, and Bill, a catastrophic one, find themselves just as attracted to and annoyed by one another as they did decades earlier. But as they unpack the riddle of their mutual past and compare their lives to the dreams they once shared, they begin to wonder if their reunion is mere coincidence, or something more enchanted.

A true rom-com for grown-ups. You'll have to forgive me for the length of this. I'd written a solid 500-ish words explaining everything about this and then one errant cat step on a mouse and here we are: a new tab with the old review gone for good. This feels like it's from an alternate reality where Gerard Butler didn't kill of rom-coms in American cinema in the 2010s and, instead, the field got to thrive li…

Trapped in an airport by a meteorological "snowbomb", we are introduced to two people with the same name - "W. Davis".

When the spark is gone only a shell remains and taints the memory of something that once was truly great. The subtitle was probably not meant as a pun, but "they missed their connection" really is very accurate. They really have no connection, our two characters…

This movie felt dated, like it belonged to a time long before my own. When a film feels old, it can often lead to a monotonous and frustrating experience, akin to being stuck in an airport with no end in sight. The slow pace and lackluster plot drove everyone watching to the brink of irritation. It seemed like a film meant for nostalgic viewing rather than showcasing actors who haven't graced the screen in years. …
