Unlikely, implausible, and unilaterally bizarre, Paperback Romance gives us the
story of a crippled romance novelist (Carides) who falls for a jeweler of
questionable moral fiber (LaPaglia) and imagines frequent dalliances between
them -- before they become real. Through in an A Fish Called Wanda-like
bumbled investigation and Romance gets even stranger. Some will enjoy the
film, others will just be really, really confused. I mean, I'd take the
mega-pretty Carides with or without the leg brace -- who wouldn't?
Aka Lucky Break.
