The Lake House

When dramatizing time-travel paradoxes, it’s important that the drama, or the meaning behind it all, presides over the paradoxes themselves. When the paradoxes become questionable, it doesn’t matter how many times Keanu and Sandy, kiss – it’s just not going to add up to very much. Keanu needed the problem-solving sounding board of Bill S. Preston, Esq. to talk him through some of the more difficult conundrums. Perhaps then she would have remembered who she saw from the train or who she watched get hit by the bus. And once they can outsmart the whole time-travel problem, á la Bill and Ted’s and finally get together, it would be a thing of beauty.
