Have you ever loved something, only to realize it’s a commercial flop or just obscure? What’s something that deserves more light than it got?

I actually really love the average to panned 2001 romcom Kate and Leopold. It's about a average woman working in advertising and a hunky duke(?) from centuries before who fell forward in time. Hugh Jackman and Meg Ryan, I think they have reasonable chemistry and there's a lot of good lines that are delivered well. It's a fun movie, and even if it's not good per se it's a good experience with fun vibes.

I just remember this movie talking about the Mac G5 before it was announced. As an early early Apple employee that geeked me right out.

Heh...my only real memory of the film from viewing it back in the day is Liev Schreiber's time-traveling character snickering at the word "erection". Clearly I should rewatch it!

I had forgotten what film that scene was in!
