We can also profit by reading more modern authors who seem at first sight to be merely perversely questioning what every sensible person knows to be true.

But John Landis wrote a good relationship which is really what the film's about. A very straightforward young woman who's very sure of herself and she meets a young man who needs some taking care of. ↗
