NY Times Videos Delve into the World of People Who Love to Talk About Their Relationships

Posted by Nicole Pasulka

 

The New York Times "Vows" videos make us thank God they've expanded their multimedia section to include videos on the tedious and intimate details of courtships between people we'd run screaming from in a dark alley. 

Carrie really likes hammocks and Chris who, despite spending all his pre-Carrie life touring with bands, does not seem like much fun--oh, well, maybe it's because of that. 

Meanwhile, Catholic Anna cannot believe that she ended up with fellow children's theater performer Alan who is--gasp!--not blond and not Catholic. He plays a mean Mother Goose, however, and readily cites Star Wars to clarify moments in his own life. Definitely a keeper. 

Natalie is hell bent on documenting every single moment of her relationship with Russell on her video camera. The two met at Harvard where an article on why Senior girls should date Sophomore guys inspired Natalie to really start liking Russell. Ah the media's power of persuasion. We're off to get engaged to someone white, overly-educated and interminably dull so that we can make a video for you about our LOVE. Ain't it grand?!
