Who doesn’t love Keanu Reeves? No one, that’s who. This week the Junkies continue a semi-regular feature looking into some of pop culture’s most important films from one of its most beloved stars. Our second lesson is on time travel/romance The Lake House. Based on the Korean film Il Mare, The Lake House reteams Reeves with one of his most charismatic co-stars, the shag-mulleted Sandra Bullock. Reeves and Bullock play would-be lovers Alex and Kate, who live in the same house but two years apart, their only connection an enchanted mailbox through which the two exchange love letters. The Junkies talk rom-com and time travel tropes, imagine if the movie was rebooted to take place in 2018, when going two years into the future would really be shocking, and determine which of today’s stars have the same chemistry as Keanu and Sandra. And finally, are rom-coms dead in 2022?

Plan for our next Keanu 101 lesson by watching John Wick.
