I do recognize the way that a movie like “Our Little Secret” works — how Netflix has changed the aesthetic of wholesome movie cheese. You watch “Our Little Secret,” seeing through the paper-thin contrivances, tittering at the imbecilities, and somehow that all becomes part of the experience. It’s mainstream fodder as downgraded camp. It’s pablum so numbing it makes you feel good.
