In “Crazy Stupid Love,” the movie opens, and the camera is examining … feet. Feet under tables. Not so much feet—but “footsie.” Upscale shoes; people on dates—feet playing footsie. All of a sudden, there’s an upscale pair of women’s shoes, paired with, on the other side, under the table … chinos and puffy dad sneakers. Does that look like a footsie situation? Can this end well?
