The film adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s It Ends With Us follows Lily Bloom (Blake Lively) as she meets neurosurgeon Ryle Kincaid (Justin Baldoni) in passing and then reconnects with him after she opens her flower shop. A complex love triangle arises as Ryle and Lily begin dating, but then Lily runs into old flame Atlas Corrigan (Brandon Sklenar) at his restaurant Root, and memories of her childhood come flooding back.
Ryle also has a dark side that reminds Lily of her parents’ relationship, with her father (Kevin McKidd) abusing her mother. It all builds to a challenging choice that Lily has to make to break the cycle or let it break her.
Taylor Swift’s “My Tears Ricochet” made it into the trailer for the film, and many other songs by women singers and songwriters like Lana Del Ray, Brittany Howard and Birdy back the strong story. Of course, men like Lewis Capaldi and Post Malone feature too.
