 Kate & Leopold (2001)
Directed by James Mangold
Written by James Mangold & Steven Rogers
Hollywood myth #9009: No matter how uncommon or extraordinary you are, be it an angel returning to human form, a ruthless bookstore tycoon, a curmugeonly "regular guy," a grieving widower, a famous rock star, or, this time, a 19th-century aristocrat inadvertently thrust into modern times via inexplicable time travel, you will be powerless not to fall in love with Meg Ryan, and you will give up everything, against impossible odds, to be with her.Why Meg Ryan? Because she's got that certain something. That is to say, a fantastic agent. You know what I want to see, at this point? A movie wherein someone extraordinary meets Meg Ryan, is not impressed, and only briefly talks to her before losing interest, and then she kills herself.
