Generation Gaps #2

In fall 2019, a young colleague told me that she loved the movie Love, Rosie starring Lily Collins, so I watched the romance movie about a good looking-guy and a pretty woman on DVD. Honestly, it was not fun so much maybe because I tend to scornfully regard a romance as unrealistic between a quite beautiful young couple. I had happened to know Lily Collins is Phil Collins's daughter, so watching it, I remembered my favorite his songs, "Easy Lover," "One More Night" and "Sussudio." 
A couple of days later, I told her that I watched it. She asked me if I bitterly cried. I replied that men do not when they watch romance movies. I also said that I was happy about remembering Phil Collins thanks to the heroin. However, she did not even know about him. It couldn't be helped. She was born after the vocalist's heyday ended. 
Love, Rosie is a story about the main characters keep missing opportunities to be united each other. Although the movie Serendipity is a romance one, I like the film which was released in 2001 and whose story is similar in terms of not being easily united. I told her about it at that time. She of course did not know it. I then did not feel like recommending it to her. She would definitely feel it old-fashioned if she watched it. 
In February 2020, I watched Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile starring Lily Collins who was not only a pretty lady but also a wonderful actor. Her performance fascinated me through, yet I have hesitated to tell the young co-worker about it.
