CGiii Comment

Actors who don't smoke shouldn't smoke - simply because they look ridiculous.

The overall message is: when your lover has an irrational fear (i.e. not perfect) - it's time to separate.

What?!?

This was an extremely boring weekend in the country - redundant.


Trailer...

The(ir) Blurb...
