This led me to realize the romance between Lou and Will was super one sided with Will putting little to zero effort into it at all. Hear my explanation by clicking that play button!
In this episode I talk about a new fav; a movie that combines cool SciFi visuals, Ryan Gosling, and creepy Alien esque music from Hans Zimmer.
