GRIM

By Daniel Bernardi | May 24, 2005

Romantic comedies don’t deal with death a whole lot. But then, when Death is your main character, it’s an issue you really can’t avoid.

Yes, Death, who looks like you or me, wants to marry his mortal girlfriend of five years, but there’s something he needs to tell her and this something is his true identity. It’s hard for her to swallow at first and then it’s hard to accept, but she does love him and decides to accept him for who he is…until the subject of the Holocaust comes up. And so Death winds up at a bar to bend the ears of his buddies. And when Death wants to cry on your shoulder, you let him.

Cute story. Funny performances. This romantic comedy won’t make you want to die.
