    Storyline

    Edit
    Emma's flight home from Chicago is very bumpy, making her believe that they're going to crash. About to "die", she spills all her inner secrets to the tall, handsome stranger sitting next to her. Next day at work at the NYC ad agency, she discovers he's the top guy in the company. As he doesn't want anyone to know he's been to Chicago, they promise each other to take the secrets to their graves. Emma shares apartment with a coworker and another woman. She's not ready to move in with her jazz loving coworker boyfriend. —Scott Filtenborg

    • Trivia
      The movie is based on a novel written by Sophie Kinsella
    • Goofs
      As Jack is telling Emma his secrets prior to takeoff, the overhead bins, across the aisle from them, are open. The plane begins its takeoff without a flight attendant ever closing the bins or performing any preflight procedures (seat check, safety procedure review, etc.).
    • Quotes

      Emma Corrigan: [to Jack] My whole life, I always based my value in myself off of what other people thought of me. I completely lost sight of who I was. And then I met you. And I told you everything about me. I told you all of my secrets. And, you didn't leave. Even though you knew all of my goofiness and my weirdness, and all of my fears and my insecurities, you didn't leave. And I didn't know anything about you, but it didn't matter because I knew your heart.

      [begins to cry]

      Emma Corrigan: You made me believe that I could be loved just by being myself. You made me believe that the only way to be loved was by being myself. And that is amazing.

    4/10
    A clichéd plain film which offers nothing than slow paced cringe Romance.
    Directed by Elise Duran, Cinematography by Autumn Eakin. Both the direction and the cinematography were kept simple. No complexity at all. The camera stands still covering up beautiful portraits like it's a photo shoot and not a film.

    Screenplay by Peter Hutchings was lame. Neither did the cringe comedy nor the stuttering awkward conversations strike a chord with the audience. I don't know if he had made justice for the book but definitely not for the producers.

    Music by Jeff Cardoni was the only admirable thing in the film. It may not be the best but it's good and not odd.

    The cast members Alexandra Daddario, Tyler Hoechlin and others have perfectly acted out their role but what didn't come out goodiin the film is that the pathetic characters they play.

    To conclude, Can you keep a secret is a clichéd romantic film that's slow paced and plain with weird characters and cringe comedy.
