To answer the question provocatively posed in this title, love ultimately dictates the mating habits in this delightful rom-com, a throwback to past British romances like Notting Hill and Love Actually. The adorable Lily James stars as Zoe, a filmmaker shooting a documentary on the courtship of her lifelong friend, who has honored his Pakistani heritage by assenting to an arranged marriage. The newly minted couple appears to be happy but Zoe’s camera catches glitches in their relationship. Emma Thompson seems to be having a ball as Zoe’s mother planning a match for her daughter.
