Old skool crazy. This time it was the heroine who was bat shit crazy. Of course she was only 19 so she was still in that everything is drama phase. But wow, she was the epitome of over reacting. He lied to her about being already married and slept with her then left her. So she tried to kill herself and when they meet again she marries him just to punish him. Fair enough but she's whackadoodle about it. He's horribly contrite and apologetic and tells her he loves her and will do anything to make it up to her so she marries him and keeps telling him that she wants him to bleed and die and she wants to be the one who shoves the knife in him. 'Cuz she's so perfect I guess. He needs to run the other way. I give it three stars for the crazy.
