Story:
Romantic comedy written and directed by James C. Strouse. Love Again (2023) follows Mira Ray (Priyanka Chopra Jonas), who in trying to deal with the loss of her fiancé, sends a series of romantic texts to his old cell phone number, not realizing the number was reassigned to journalist Rob Burns’s (Sam Heughan) new work phone. As Rob is captivated by the honesty in the beautifully confessional texts, when he’s assigned to write a profile of megastar Celine Dion, he enlists her help in figuring out how to meet Mira in person, and win her heart.
We’ll add the best quotes once the movie is released and we’ve had a chance to watch it, but for now, here’s a small selection.

Mira Ray: [texting] I met someone interesting at the opera tonight.
Rob Burns: [referring to Mira] She thinks I’m interesting.
Colleague: You need to tell her the truth. You should have said something to her right away.
Rob Burns: But if I tell her, she’ll never speak to again.
Colleague: [to Rob] Now you can tell her you’ve been reading her texts to her dead boyfriend.
Mira Ray: [to Rob] I was looking forward to this. I just felt like I knew you or something.
