The Willoughbys movie on Netflix is pretty fun too. Great cast with Martin Short, Terry Crewes, Maya Rudolph, Jane Krakowski, Ricky Gervais, and Will Forte.

This had to be intentional.

The book is comedic but I'm certain the parallel was intentional

Another book is Outlander by Diana Gabaldon, which is also about time traveling and I thought that was intentional. I don't have a screenshot, but I made my husband rewind so I could confirm it :)

I never saw the movie so I’d have to say you are 100% right.

"I have no experience or expertise about this but I have an opinion anyway and I need to share it with you" is one of my least favorite types of comment on the internet.

Watch it once, then google the hypothesis about the movie and then rewatch.
