Buried in the movie trailer was a snippet of the two main characters canoeing. Kudos for including a paddlesport! However shouldn't someone on the writing staff or movie crew known (or researched) that when two people are paddling a canoe, both people face forward!?
One could argue that the flatwater environment means very little work for the front seat paddler, especially when every stroke is backwards. Perhaps there are few obstacles in this flatwater environment - no sunken logs, no tree stumps, etc. However, it makes for better movie making if the two love interests can look deeply into each others eyes...maybe next time they'll get a rowboat.
You can watch the trailer here... the canoeing sequence begins around 1:21.
