As someone who read Tia Williams’s Seven Days in June over the course of literally a single day in July, I was thrilled to hear that her book The Perfect Find had been adapted into a Netflix rom-com starring Gabrielle Union (my fave!) and Keith Powers. Union plays a 40-year-old woman who pivots into the strange and wonderful world of beauty journalism after a bad breakup and accidentally hooks up with…her boss’s 20-something son? I’m into it. Let’s dive in, shall we?
- God, moms always want you to “get back at it” after a breakup.
- Granted, said breakup was a year ago, but it took place after a 10-year relationship! I’d be holed up at my mom’s house too.
- Jenna’s interviewing with a beauty titan named Darcy at her online publication Darzine, and I really like her cape-esque shirt. Not a huge fan of the pink silk pants, but you can’t win ’em all.
- LMAO, this all-pink conference room is sooooo women’s-media coded (and sooooo Barbie).
- Oh, damn, the Darzine Gala is apparently a Met rival? Okay!
- So Jenna’s going to be creative director…for the duration of a three-month trial contract? Sounds like digital media!
- If anyone tells me I’m “so brave” in public, we’re physically fighting.
- Ooh, Jenna meets a hot guy!
- She apparently wanted to be a film historian, but her mom told her it “wasn’t a real job,” which it is! Just not a high-paying one!
- Wow, these two went from meeting to making out in record time. Respect.
- Wow, Darcy’s chain-mail head wrap is iconic.
- Oh, noooooo, the “fetus” Jenna made out with is Darcy’s son!
- And he’s the new videographer for Darzine?
- Ugh, his name is Eric? Bad name, IMO.
- Jenna saying “there’s nothing wrong with Black nepotism” has me LOL’ing.
- “AARP pussy” also has me LOL’ing. This movie is funny!
- Gabrielle Union looks so good in clothes, even shapeless ones that would make me look vaguely Mennonite.
- A peacock named after Taraji P. Henson? Absolutely.
- Jenna’s friend wants to set her up with a guy who’s age appropriate, owns a wine shop, and can spell. Win!
- Gabrielle in a beret is everything I never knew I needed.
- Jenna invites Eric to dinner with her friends and this wine-shop guy, who sucks.
- Eric is properly a dick to the wine-shop guy, and Jenna must be into him because they hook up again, and 30 seconds later, she has a plan to save Darzine with a tribute to couture.
- Gotta love a romantic bridge moment. I never had one over the course of a decade-plus in New York, but still!
- Eric is spilling secrets about his mom to Jenna postcoitally, which…seems like a workplace no-no.
- Hey, it’s Winnie Harlow!
- There’s a whole subplot going on in which Eric and Jenna are getting media attention for how well they’ve influenced Darzine, but it’s kind of boring, so you don’t need to worry about it.
- Love to see adults fighting in Batman masks at a children’s party. As Eric says, it’s a bad look.
- OMG, Darcy finds out that Eric and Jenna are hooking up and fires Jenna.
- Oh, shit, time jump! Jenna’s pregnant and teaching a fashion-in-film course at Columbia (which, BTW, I want to take), and Eric is kind of a dick about it.
- Aw, Darcy basically bullies Jenna into being part of her family, and Eric and Jenna work it out.
- I genuinely liked this movie!
