If movie rental stores hadn’t had late fees 12 years ago, we might not still be feeling pangs of resentment about the 1991 British film Truly Madly Deeply.

Not only did we not enjoy this film (the shrill performance of Juliet Stevenson, whose expressions of grief at a suddenly deceased lover, were downright abrasive), but we ended up paying $34.50 in late fees once we remembered to return it. You can imagine our shame-faced revulsion at having to fork over that cash to the local rental store, which didn’t make any attempts at granting amnesty.
