It's really a perfect movie kiss. They're so cute.
"Peter Kavinsky, I'm not trying to date you."
"Okay well yeah but your mouth is saying something but then your
mouth said something completely different."
"What?"
I'm Nicole Moore, body language expert, and today I'm going to break down the evolution
of the relationship between Peter and Lara Jean, everybody's favorite
on-screen romance in the To All The Boys series.
So as Lara Jean enters the hot tub, she takes a big breath, she's a little bit tentative.
That (gasp) is saying 'I don't know what's going to happen here. I'm going for it, but I'm a little
bit scared.' As she's moving closer to him you can see her shoulders are very tight to her body.
She's in, but she's scared. She's tentative. She doesn't know what's going to happen.
But she's pulled closer. The closer these two get there's like electricity between them.
It's like their bodies are literally can't help but get closer. And then they kiss.
And it's really a perfect movie kiss. There's a little bit of tenderness. A little bit of
tentativeness, but their passion is bringing the two of them together. Peter is comfortable.
He's relaxed, he's all in. Lara Jean? She's not sure yet, but the more she kisses him,
the more her body relaxes. The more she becomes sure that he is the one she wants to kiss.
So Lara Jean is exiting the dance now. She's walking faster and faster. It's like she decided
that Peter is the one for her and she can't wait to get to him. And there's no more hesitation in
Lara Jean anymore. It's funny, we see Peter, and that he's the one who is hesitant now. His hands
are in his pockets. His shoulders are tight. He doesn't know if she's gonna embrace him or not.
"You Said You Didn't Like Driving In The Snow, Right?"
Lara Jean has her hands in front of her dress. She's not sure what he's gonna say. So right
here in this scene, they want to move towards each other, but their body language is showing
'I'm not sure what the other person is going to say. I'm not sure if they're gonna react.'
They both want to run closer, but their hands show, they're a little bit afraid.
So the body language changes, when Peter walks straight towards Lara Jean. He decides 'I'm
going to take that risk, I'm gonna show her what she means to me.' And when he starts doing that,
that's when Lara Jean relaxes and she moves towards him. Her body comes towards him.
And when they kiss this time, there's no hesitation. They are as close as they can
be to the other person. And if we watch Peter's face, that's the body language that's showing
how much love there is between this couple. He's scrunching up his face
as he's kissing her. He's pulling her closer. He's literally saying with his body language,
'I want more of you, I can't get enough of you. You're the person that I want.' Their foreheads
are touching. It's a passionate kiss full of true love with the recognition: I have found my person.
So Peter is seeing Lara Jean after she's been long away for a long time.
And as soon as she sees her, he has this wide open smile. Lara Jean is interesting. She stands there
and she doesn't show her teeth when she's smiling. She's happy, but it's this comfortable kind of
happy. She runs up and puts her arms around his neck, and you can tell: this is a kiss of
long term comfort. It's a kiss of 'my home, the person that I feel like is home, they're back.'
So you can see that Peter kind of puts his head on top of Lara Jean's. She snuggles her head,
under his neck. They're kissing, they're hugging, but it's not a passionate kiss. It's a kiss of:
'the person that I love the most in the world is back.'
So this scene is really showing the evolution of this couple's relationship. They've gone from 'I
don't know what's gonna happen', to hot and heavy passion, and now we're seeing the deep level of
comfort and safety this couple has with each other. All of that body language is indicating:
he sees her as home. She sees him as home. They seem so comfortable with each other,
they feel so home with each other. Their relationship has evolved to that point.
