A decent mix of indie and cliches
This is a pretty creative movie showing giving us small window in to the process that goes in to writing a script showing the people behind the script as well as the story they are writing parallel with each other. This movie invites us in to the world of these two writers who come together with different views on love. life and writing and mix them all in to a pretty mediocre movie. A movie we get to see within the movie.However the chemistry, interactions and journey the writers take while writing the script is way more interesting than the movie, even if the movie within the movie does have some nice fluff and cliches, that are lovely too, the main attraction is the writers writing about love raising important questions such as can a person who has never been in a relationship write about love? What is love? are there people who have never experienced love?
The movie also deals with loss, wanting to run away and all kinds of relationships in a pretty good way. and has some pretty amazing lines among the otherwise kind of bland plot.
Said about divorce:
" It was our choice and it is for the best"
There are also some unexpected twists here and there, a few annoying elements too but all in all a pretty decent watch and time not waisted as this does have a certain uniqueness between the cliches...

You are my greatest love, but you are also my greatest pain
In a seamless manner, Write About Love (2019) draws a connection between the main couples lives with the story of the couple and script that they are creating. A lot of perspective on love and the ways in which we love, the film's main focus is the fact that love and pain go hand in hand.Personally, I am not convinced with the idea that there is no "true love" with out pain, but overall it is a very sweet and heart-warming story.
