Movies to broach awkward subjects

By Stacie Wieland

Subject 1: Fidelity

One of the biggest worries that can plague a couple is that of someone on the side. Want to reinforce just how important fidelity is? No worries. Let one of the biggest cinematic deterrents of infidelity do the talking for you by popping in “Fatal Attraction”.

Subject 2: Trust

All right, so the discussion on fidelity has just come to a close. But there’s still a nagging feeling something isn’t right and the worry of infidelity has turned into a questioning of trust. Well, just wait a second. Take a deep breath. “Closer” might just be the remedy, as mistrust and deception run rampant.

Subject 3: Love-life anxiety

Just as you both sit back to relax after a conversation on the importance of trust and honesty, questions start cropping up. Questions like “Are we really in love?” Don’t panic. “The Last Kiss” explores these anxieties in a way that leaves the heart aching with empathy. However, the credits roll on a decidedly hopeful note.
