Even though you're nowhere near me

High Fidelity

(2000)
Oh, gosh, would that it were that easy. This has always seemed pretty nearly perfect to me before, and I still love it dearly, but whoosh! we go from Rob and Laura being apart to Rob and Laura (and how can I never before have noticed the "Rob and Laura" of it? It could have been set in New Rochelle?) being back together, and, postreconciliation, from Rob still exhibiting symptoms of Peter Pan Syndrome to his being completely cured at a pace inconsistent with the rest of the film. Still . . . quibbles.
