But should he read the book first? That is the question.

All I've heard is that it's, for lack of a better word, good.

Reading the book first is like having to eat your veggies before dessert.

Apparently I am incapable of telling Zooey Deutch from Haley Lu Richardson. I was 50% into watching Set It Up sure I was watching the latter actress.

Making my Top 5 Things You're a Sucker For list, got me thinking: What's the last good kiss you saw in a film? Recent films, not old films you caught up on.

I'm honestly having trouble thinking of any. Maybe Call Me By Your Name, but I don't have a clear memory of just a kissing scene.

Would you consider Inception?

Ariadne: What's happening?
Arthur: Your subconscious is looking for the dreamer; me. Quick, give me a kiss.
Ariadne: [She kisses him and then looks around]
Ariadne: They're still looking at us.
Arthur: Yeah, it was worth a shot.

How can you not enjoy this moment? :)

The Shape of Water's moments were bold and weirdly sexy.

Okay, Call Me By Your Name certainly does have a good one.

I don't remember that from Inception.

I didn't like Shape of Water, but it does make a big moment out their kiss.

The friend I watched Flower with thought the kiss between the step-siblings was a good one.
