• the two characters are from different time periods/timelines
• one of them is a ghost
• one of them is supposed to be fictional but is somehow real
I want to build a master list of content like this but some favorite examples so far include:
• Somewhere in Time (1980)
• The Lake House (2006)
• Love Across Time (2024)
• any of those books/movies where a modern-day woman gets sucked into a regency era novel/time period and falls for a Mr Darcy archetype
• Casper
• Outlander (sorta, I have a soapbox about this series but I do love the premise)
