The screenplay and title of this romantic comedy stem from a proverb that comes up at the beginning of the film: "Three blind men are placed in front of an elephant and are asked to say what it is. Grabbing the elephant's foot, the first man says it's a tree. The second one feels its trunk and exclaims that it is a snake, while the third man touches its ears and decides it is a big bird". Of course, it is none of these things. The same goes for love. We are like the three blind men in front of the elephant. We think we know all about love, but, in fact, love is not what we think it is...
