Is it just me or romantic comedies are better twenty years ago? Way better than all the Katherine Heigl and Jennifer Aniston movies combined. 

The Meg Ryan-Nora Ephron Trilogy 

I just noticed that the most loved and unforgettable movies written by Nora Ephron were led by Meg Ryan: When Harry Met Sally, Sleepless in Seattle and You've Got Mail. Any objections? None? Good. Coz she's perfect for all these movies. 

I love Definitely, Maybe. It's one of my go-to movie when I'm feeling low. But did you know that the inspiration of the movie is the classic When Harry Met Sally? Yes people  don't argue with me; it's a classic. If not now, eventually. It should be. Written back in the day when Friendzone is nonexistent, When Harry Met Sally is a slow-building, candid and beautiful love story between two friends. I did not find myself rushing the two of them to "just get together and kiss. Fin" because even their friendly interactions are enjoyable. It strengthened my belief that it's always friendship that build the strongest relationship. Not Facebook flirting. 

The Julia Roberts Spell 

One month ago, I had only seen two of Julia Roberts' movies: Notting Hill and Eat, Pray, Love. I was so young when I watched Notting Hill so I can't remember most of it and I did not like Eat, Pray, Love. So in short, I still had not understand why Julia Roberts became America's Sweetheart and why every woman adores her (Even Emma Watson who is the life peg of most teenagers) She's like the origin of all adoration in the late 20th century. 

Then I watched Pretty Woman. And now I get it. 

I know she's famous for her smile, but it's her eyes! It casts a spell that won't let you take your gaze off her. She conveys emotions that can't be expressed in words through her eyes... And then you'll find yourself falling in love with her whole being. Seriously, that girl's a voodoo! Haha.

I hope Hollywood stop making crappy movies just for profit and start making quality love stories. We're not always in the mood for heavy, Oscar-ish French films, or stressful Mafia action, but I think everybody can watch a good love story any time of the day. With quality script, good acting and right execution, it will never fail to lift the viewers' moods.
