Would Rushmore count a romantic comedy? it focuses on a (twisted) love triangle and is damn funny]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Really interesting list. Hmmm...if I were restricted to films not listed here for my favorite rom-coms list...

Down With Love - It&#x27;s so artificial, and yet that artificiality is its entire point, acknowledging that the battle of the sexes is a silly facade. And Zellweger and McGregor (and Hyde Pierce and Paulson) have NEVER been better. And I can&#x27;t help but wonder if Pierce and Paulson were deliberately cast, as Pierce is out gay and Paulson is out lesbian. 
Music and Lyrics - Okay, so it&#x27;s not directed with much flair or anything other than plain competence. That aside, Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore just WORK. And if nothing else, the music is fucking amazing. I still listen to Pop! Goes My Heart and Way Back into Love all the time.
Punch-Drunk Love - Well, duh. I don&#x27;t know what I can say here that hasn&#x27;t been said elsewhere, but a film that manages to turn Sandler&#x27;s manchild instincts into a source of strength rather than a crippling flaw is impressive. Also, it&#x27;s kind of a super-hero film. Or an alien film. Kind of open to interpretation.
WALL-E - Okay, so it&#x27;s also an animated science fiction film. But the core story is about a lonely janitor who meets a dream girl and then EARNS her love the hard way, following her across the galaxy and beating his programming just to fulfill HER objective. Okay, granted, you could take it as the ultimate Internet Nice Guy story, but I choose not to, okay?
Ninotchka - God, I wish Garbo had been a comedy star. Knowing this is her only major comedy role is DEVASTATING, because she takes to it like a fish in water. Or like a conservative politician at an NRA meeting. Well, you get the idea. 
Raising Arizona - Because romantic comedies don&#x27;t have to be about meet-cutes. Some of the best are about husbands and wives falling back into love with each other, or renewing their commitment, or proving themselves to each other. And I can&#x27;t think of many screen couples I wanted to succeed while watching the film more than Hi and Ed. 
Adam&#x27;s Rib - Another terrific dissection of the BATTLE OF THE SEXES. Spencer Tracy was always sort of manly, but he tended to be best at playing deeply empathetic characters with a more feminine sense of understanding for his fellow man, and so his match with Hepburn is screen bliss, a hard-driving woman and a sympathetic man, each testing at the boundaries of their gender while at each other&#x27;s throats. 
What&#x27;s Up, Doc? - because before seeing this movie, I hated Barbra Streisand. And now I can&#x27;t. Also because Ryan O&#x27;Neal is a seriously underrated actor (or he was just used well in three masterpieces: Doc, Paper Moon, and Barry Lyndon). And that chase down the streets of San Francisco is pure madcap bliss.
Moonstruck - I guess I&#x27;d have to say Nic Cage was never better than as a goofy romantic figure. I mean, I know it&#x27;s cheesy and maybe full of stereotypes, but every actor brings these stereotypes into the realm of living, breathing humans. Not just Cage and the divine Cher, but Dukakis, Gardenia, Mahoney, Aiello, and the rest.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Uhm... HighFidelity is way overrated, and I hate not seeing &#034;Punch-Drunk Love, by my favorite P.T. Anderson, but again, after seeing-in the same article - Stanley Donen&#x27;s  very charming, but aged and very telephoned mainstream fare like &#034;Two for the Roads&#034;,preferred to 2 classic&#x27;s of the same Time, Schlesinger&#x27;s much more poignant, unforgettable &#034;Darling&#034; (Best Actress Oscar to Julie Christie and to its Screenplay from the divine Frederic Raphael,who also penned the way minor,if still sophisticated,&#034;Two for the Roads&#034;) and,then, one of the most innovative,brilliant,if unsettling, romantic bitter sweet comedies of all time, Richard Lester&#x27;s masterpiece&#034;Petulia&#034;(1968) starring also Julie Christie (whom by the way, had turned down &#034;Two for the Road&#034; finding it less unique than the other two!) at her very top, and lit by genius Nicolas Roeg,with a dazzling,unforgettable production design by Tony Walton and Dean Tavoularis (Academy Award for Apocalypse Now,1980), well, after such considerations, I am not surprised to see memorable titles left out of much more less memorable others!
Sorry! It started real well by remembering a real gem, like, 1936&#x27;s Carol Lombard&#x27;s classic masterpiece &#034;My Man&#x27;s Godfrey&#034;,but it&#x27;s been going down, citing a few well known and more conventional films after another!
By the way, since, we love Julie Christie, hey, i don&#x27;t know if the true Classic, &#034;Shampoo&#034;(1975), could be really considered somewhat of a romantic comedy also; and,even though there&#x27;s a lot of romance at the end, the film is more focused on developing its deeply flawed characters,while portraying with incredible Gusto,unfolding with wit and some of the most clever odd moments ever seen in a mainstream huge film,an array of situations that remain classic and still completely true, even today! That yes, was an incredible film who should be cited more often, WOW, if I only think about such a  phenomenal script by Robert Towne(probably his very best, right next to &#034;Chinatown&#034;) so insightful and disenchanted in describing  that riot of a plot, yet always with the firm realism necessary to nail, once and forever, the absolute,corrupted game between love,power,politic&#x27;s and,of course, hair and appearance, in one of the finest and most sophisticated,haunting portraits of LA, or better, Beverly Hills, ever, and i mean, truly ever filmed,so far,lining up a cast of stars that besides the already cited,Christie, truly divine here,portraying the jaded Jackie Shawn, but also, Warren Beatty, probably at his very peak, both as a movie star and as a clever Producer and strength, behind this incredible film, but also a smashing supporting Cast, featuring some of its Stars&#x27; Best Performances ever: Goldie Hawn (truly never so measured and touching as in this one,ever again!), Lee Grant (truly incredible and rightly Awarded by an Oscar for her great supporting turn as the most wealthy and most unhappy of the Beverly Hills wives ever seen on screen!),the outstanding Jack Warden, here also probably getting his most defining role of his long Film and Stage Career, and even Tony Bill and Carrie Fisher, Andrew Stevens or others classic Hollywood&#x27;s characters directed and cast as their most finest! Hal Ashby (&#034;Harold and Maude&#034; and &#034;Being There&#034;, and that&#x27;s saying something, isn&#x27;t it?) directed this masterpiece, whose fame, directors and cast should be remembered way more often! If you haven&#x27;t seen it, this is a MUST!!  Forget &#034;High Fidelity&#034;, please...... lol]]></description>

Sorry! It started real well by remembering a real gem, like, 1936&#x27;s Carol Lombard&#x27;s classic masterpiece &quot;My Man&#x27;s Godfrey&quot;,but it&#x27;s been going down, citing a few well known and more conventional films after another!<br />
By the way, since, we love Julie Christie, hey, i don&#x27;t know if the true Classic, &quot;Shampoo&quot;(1975), could be really considered somewhat of a romantic comedy also; and,even though there&#x27;s a lot of romance at the end, the film is more focused on developing its deeply flawed characters,while portraying with incredible Gusto,unfolding with wit and some of the most clever odd moments ever seen in a mainstream huge film,an array of situations that remain classic and still completely true, even today! That yes, was an incredible film who should be cited more often, WOW, if I only think about such a  phenomenal script by Robert Towne(probably his very best, right next to &quot;Chinatown&quot;) so insightful and disenchanted in describing  that riot of a plot, yet always with the firm realism necessary to nail, once and forever, the absolute,corrupted game between love,power,politic&#x27;s and,of course, hair and appearance, in one of the finest and most sophisticated,haunting portraits of LA, or better, Beverly Hills, ever, and i mean, truly ever filmed,so far,lining up a cast of stars that besides the already cited,Christie, truly divine here,portraying the jaded Jackie Shawn, but also, Warren Beatty, probably at his very peak, both as a movie star and as a clever Producer and strength, behind this incredible film, but also a smashing supporting Cast, featuring some of its Stars&#x27; Best Performances ever: Goldie Hawn (truly never so measured and touching as in this one,ever again!), Lee Grant (truly incredible and rightly Awarded by an Oscar for her great supporting turn as the most wealthy and most unhappy of the Beverly Hills wives ever seen on screen!),the outstanding Jack Warden, here also probably getting his most defining role of his long Film and Stage Career, and even Tony Bill and Carrie Fisher, Andrew Stevens or others classic Hollywood&#x27;s characters directed and cast as their most finest! Hal Ashby (&quot;Harold and Maude&quot; and &quot;Being There&quot;, and that&#x27;s saying something, isn&#x27;t it?) directed this masterpiece, whose fame, directors and cast should be remembered way more often! If you haven&#x27;t seen it, this is a MUST!!  Forget &quot;High Fidelity&quot;, please&#8230;&#8230; lol</p>

					<description><![CDATA[I love My Man Godfrey,  William Powell is one of my all-time favorite actors he and Carole Lombard had such great chemistry in that movie.  I love the part where she kissed him and he looks at her all befuddled and tries to walk away with as much of his dignity as he can, but you know she got to him.]]></description>
