Sunday Movie Time: The Vow

The best part of having a Sunday afternoon off is when Saturday brought me a fresh red envelope. You know the ones I'm talking about.

So this weekend the selection was The Vow. This 'inspired by a true story' flick tells the tale of Paige and Leo, a young couple madly in love. One wintery night they are having dinner out and end up getting a bit frisky in the car when it is run into by a snow plow (I know rather lame sounding set up but work with me here). Both are hurt but it's Paige that is the more severe as she ends up with a 'traumatic brain injury' (a phrase tossed around a lot during the movie) and after a few weeks in a forced coma she wakes up to discover that she's forgotten around 4-5 years of her life including her entire relationship with Leo.
