Passing Time

Movies are made for fans and I get really excited when I read comments where fans are really invested in a movie.

I slept too early last night and so around 3am I found myself awake. I contemplated journaling the last novel I read for a  booktok post but I decided on a movie instead.

I settled for Picture This, a British Romantic comedy released on Amazon Prime Video in March 2025.

When I was done, In my usual way, I went online to see what people were saying about it.

I had a good laugh…majority of the comments were on about how it felt like the couple in the movie was cheating on their actual partners… Anthony and Tessa.

Long story short, the couple in the movie is played by:

1. Hero Fiennes Tiffin: he’s grown on fans over the years from his performance as Hardin in the After Series. Tessa is the love of his life in this series and it feels weird to see him with someone else.
2. Simone Ashley: she captured hearts in her fascinating performance as Kate in the second season of Julia Quinn’s Bridgerton series; The Viscount Who Loved Me. She marries Anthony and later falls in love him.

They did really well with “cheating on their actual partners”.

I loved the film, it’s a simple feel-good film. I’m glad I picked it to pass time. I would recommend it.
