...idiots? I was watching "Only You" last night. Marisa Tomei is engaged to a successful, stable guy, so she decides to call off the wedding in favor of searching an entire country for a man whose name showed up on her Ouija Board when she was eleven. In the end, she ends up marrying a man who lied about his name to get with her instead. The fcuk kind of dumbass twaat does that?
