Not Couple Goals: Deep Water (2022)

Welcome to “Not Couple Goals” where co-hosts Allie Nelson and Tyler McCarthy do a deep dive into a different ridiculous romantic thriller from the vantage point of their long-term relationship. Allie, a TV writer/producer and actress, has an affinity for romantic thrillers, the more salacious the better. Tyler, an entertainment reporter and critic, often finds himself drawn in despite his better judgment. Join them as they explore all the ways it’s possible to love too hard… like WAY too hard. This week, they discuss the Hulu Original Deep Water, starring Ben Affleck and Ana de Armas, which was billed as the sexiest movie of 2022 when it came out in March. From nonsensical theme parties to even more nonsensical relationship dynamics, this movie is filled to the brim with the kind of erotic, murderous intrigue that makes this genre so great. Listen as Allie and Tyler devote more thought to this film than the screenwriters did. Special thanks to Mallory Johns for the introduction music.
