J. Lo Had a Romantic Reason for Featuring ‘The Way We Were’ in Her New Film
Jennifer Lopez revealed the reason she featured ‘The Way We Were’ in her new musical film, ‘This Is Me … Now’
In the narrative-driven musical, Lopez watches the 1973 tearjerker starring Barbra Streisand and Robert Redford, repeating the lines back to herself as she cries over a past heartbreak. The story follows Lopez as she overcomes a series of bad relationships and blossoms into a place of self-love before being reunited with The One, inspired by her life after her 2002 split from Affleck, before the pair rekindled their romance nearly two decades later. While This Is Me … Now: A Love Story recalls Lopez’s time away from Affleck, the album serves as a follow-up to her 2002 record, This Is Me … Then, which was inspired by the pair’s relationship and subsequent 2002 breakup.
