They missed their connection.
Two ex-lovers get snowed in at a regional airport overnight. Indefinitely delayed, Willa, a magical thinker, and Bill, a catastrophic one, find themselves just as attracted to and annoyed by one another as they did decades earlier. But as they unpack the riddle of their mutual past and compare their lives to the dreams they once shared, they begin to wonder if their reunion is mere coincidence, or something more enchanted.

A true rom-com for grown-ups. You'll have to forgive me for the length of this.

It seemed like a film meant for nostalgic viewing rather than showcasing actors who haven't graced the screen in years. The…
