THE KISS OF LIFE | RACHEL & LUCE — IMAGINE ME & YOU (2005) 💐💋 Rachel came to Luce’s flower shop to end whatever was happening between them. This was a very sensible plan. It lasted approximately thirty seconds. Piper Perabo’s Rachel has spent days trying to convince herself that the attraction she feels toward Luce is something she can simply ignore. Lena Headey’s Luce, meanwhile, knows perfectly well that falling for a married woman is hardly the beginning of a stress-free romantic comedy. So Rachel arrives with a decision. This cannot happen. Whatever this is, it has to stop. She says it. She leaves. And then she comes back. One look at Luce and all that carefully arranged common sense disappears somewhere between the doorway and the flowers. Rachel kisses her. And suddenly, the question isn’t whether something exists between them anymore. It very obviously does. The beauty of Rachel and Luce is that Imagine Me & You lets their romance be complicated without making their attraction feel complicated. Rachel is frightened by what it means for the life she already has. Luce knows exactly what she feels, but has no desire to become the person who destroys someone else’s marriage. Which makes their first kiss wonderfully inevitable. They try restraint. They try reason. They even try leaving the room. Apparently none of it stood much chance against Lena Headey and Piper Perabo in the back of a flower shop. 💐 And because romance occasionally enjoys a sense of humor, things become passionate enough for the flowers themselves to start fighting back. Sometimes a kiss ends the story. This one finally starts it. ❤️ #ImagineMeAndYou #PiperPerabo #LenaHeadey #Rachel #Luce - @bridgenoland
