So here's the thing about romantic comedies (romcoms): they kind of suck but I still like them. At this point, all a romcom needs to be okay is a strong lead, respectable dialogue, and snappy music. To be a respectable romcom, one that doesn't make you feel dirty in the morning, there's another certain X factor.
In no particular order of quality, here are some clips/trailers from respectable romcoms.
While You Were Sleeping
Pretty in Pink
His Girl Friday, a movie I will watch "anytime, any place, anywhere."
Pillow Talk
Annie Hall
Put them all together, and you have what society has constructed romance to be. Or at least some decent songs with fast talking and a dash of spider killing.
