Our suggestions
A shy, middle-aged professor enters into a romantic but non-physical relationship with an unlucky-in-love colleague.
"Romantic cliché good for passing the time, 'The Mirror Has Two Faces' is a sure thing that actress and singer Barbra Streisand is also a good director. Here, we follow the story of two professors from Columbia University who feel lonely. He, Gregory Larkin (Jeff Bridges), is an introverted mathematics professor who still loves his former girlfriend who left him for someone else. She, Rose Morgan (Barbra Streisand), is a literature professor who saw her great love, Alex (Pierce Brosnan), marry her sister. So, when she sees Gregory's ad in a sentimental mail, she decides to answer as if it were only Rose, since they both belong to the same university. From there, we dive into an intellectual romance, with a lot of passion involved, and that should leave anyone enchanted by the relationship of the characters. A movie to travel and get emotional."
