| I thought the actors were all fine. Very professional. Yes, I didn't quite get the "magic realism" effect also. And was the multi-cultural casting part of this magic realism. I mean, it is deep-country Maine. I also was a bit misunderstanding of the "ring" section. Were there 2 rings? What did I miss? |

| I don't think there were supposed to be 2 rings. I think the "handoff" was imperfect, so it made it seem like there were two, but I believe there is only supposed to be 1. Of all the scenes, I didn't really like that one. It seemed that the couple had issues they needed to work on, and getting engaged is not solving their issues. |

| "And was the multi-cultural casting part of this magic realism. I mean, it is deep-country Maine." Don't know if you got the memo, but it's actually OK to cast someone who isn't white. Hope you didn't see HAMILTON. It might give you seizures. |

| Probably would have thrown it away. I'm just waiting for the multi-cultural Porgy and Bess and Ain't Misbehavin. And yes, I saw Hamilton. It was born that way... |

| “Probably would have thrown it away. I'm just waiting for the multi-cultural Porgy and Bess and Ain't Misbehavin.“ Check the memo again. And this time, instead of throwing it away, maybe consider, y’know, reading it. Just an idea. |
