Do Hugh Grant movies make you swoon? Or are you more of a Sandra Bullock or Meg Ryan fan? Maybe, you think rom coms are overrated "chick flicks." No matter what you think of them, you've probably seen at least one rom com in your life -- it's one of the most popular genres of the past 50 years. In this class, we'll be looking at how the romantic comedy genre has gained traction, lost it, and found it again through case studies of popular movies like When Harry Met Sally, 10 Things I Hate About You, and Crazy Rich Asians. Learn a little more about film culture, meet other rom com fanatics, and have a good time! Snack provided!
