So, I was just thinking about what the worst kiss scene might be.
TBH, I'm not that interested in romance as a genre, but I appreciate a screen romance as much as the next person, as long as it's well done and believable.
I think the kiss between Finn and Rose in The Last Jedi must rank as one of the worst. There was no chemistry between the two characters, and Rose's kiss surprised Finn as much as the audience, lol.
Pure cringe ...
Perhaps it would be helpful to point out when on-screen romance is done right.
Dawn and Tim from The Office is one such example. It's impossible not to feel some emotion when she unwraps Tim's present and sees his note 'never give up'.
Enjoy ...
Even the little romance between Oskar and Eli from Let The Right One In is done better than when Rose Tico MeToo-ed Finn, lol.
Oskar is a twelve year old boy and Eli is a 200 year old vampire, forever frozen in childhood.
It is a story told and acted well. I guess its appeal is that most people, including me, were about twelve when they had their first girlfriend, or whatever.
There are no subtitles in this clip - Eli says thanks and tells Oskar she must leave.
