You know, I had the same reaction after watching a few scenes for the first time. I didnt connect with the characters or the actors, and thought the story was rather bleh, because I wasnt interested in a story of a playboy getting his way. I stopped the dvd a few scenes before Cox appeared. But, after finding out Cox was in it, I borrowed the dvd again and watched the entire movie. I warmed up to the story, despite its serendipitous ending. Sorry, I cant think of a better term, and that movie Serendipity popped in my head. I did find myself repeating Cox's scenes because they were so adorable, especially when he stares out the window with puppy dog eyes and a pout, or when he jokes around with his sister, or when he tries to practice sword fighting, or when hes clumsy and knocks things down, or when he repeatedly slaps Casanova in the face after blundering a line by saying "you have sullied my glove," instead of saying "you have sullied my love." ;D What a sweetie. Too bad the character turned into a playboy when he was such a sweet romantic in the beginning. I never liked how his character changed.
