Speechless

Speechless (1994) is a romantic comedy from director Ron Underwood you can watch online on iFILM, starring Michael Keaton and Geena Davis.

Two insomniacs collide in a late-night convenience store, fighting over the last box of sleeping pills, and fall for each other on the spot. The catch: both write speeches for a living — for rival candidates in a tight New Mexico election. Once the secret slips, the budding romance curdles into a battle of wits, full of sharp one-liners, press traps and zero sleep. Christopher Reeve turns up as a smug TV correspondent muddying Julia's plans.

It's a breezy throwback to the days when bickering-couple comedies were their own genre, riding almost entirely on the Keaton-Davis chemistry — buy that, and the evening works. Stream Speechless online on iFILM.
