  50 Favorite OTPs: Jerry Wariner/Lucy Wariner - The Awful Truth

  Lucy: I’m still in love with that crazy idiot and there is nothing I can do about it.

  Jerry and Lucy aren’t particularly nice people. They scheme, sabotage and completely dismantle each other in public and in private, but that is beside the point. If love is a game, these people are each other’s greatest opponents and they should never play with anyone else. No one will ever get Jerry quite like Lucy does and no one will get Lucy the way Jerry does and because of this…THEY DRIVE EACH OTHER INSANE. Over the years, the more I watch this movie and I watch it least three times a year, I realize that these two people can’t stay away from each other because they are not really alive unless they are with each other. The way they spark off each other and the way they let each other be completely insane is why they work and why they can’t really be with anyone else. If love is a form of insanity, these two have the exact same mental illness. And, yes, this is completely romantic. I think.
