"The Truth About Cats & Dogs A somewhat forgotten 90s romcom which is Cyrano retold in 90s LA. Brit Ben Chaplin is a delightfully incompetent owner of a large dog who mistakes Uma Thurman's producer for Janeane Garofalo's radio presenter of a pet advice radio phone-in. Garofalo and Chaplin completely steal the film I do wish people had given her more roles after it and it's touching, silly and (I've discovered over the years) a film for people like me who don't really like romcoms or romantic films in particular."
"Two for the Road It's a bittersweet dramedy on a 12-year marriage that jumps back-and-forth in time. Funny and sad, trusting and betrayal, indifferent and loving in other words a realistic take on marriage. If you've never seen it, see it. If you've seen it, see it again. It's more than worth the journey."
"Palm Springs Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti in Palm Springs. Photograph: Landmark Media/Alamy Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti in a plot that's basically Groundhog Day, but with someone else, but it turns out you can do some nice stuff with that. Also it's pleasingly self-aware that we all know how the basic Groundhog Day idea works, so it gets all the wait this all happened yesterday! stuff out of the way with admirable efficiency."
The Truth About Cats & Dogs is a 90s romcom retelling Cyrano set in LA, featuring Ben Chaplin, Uma Thurman, and Janeane Garofalo and balancing touching and silly tones. Two for the Road is a bittersweet dramedy spanning a 12-year marriage with nonlinear time jumps that combine humor and realism. Palm Springs applies a Groundhog Day–style premise with self-aware humor and fresh character dynamics between Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti. What If pairs Daniel Radcliffe and Zoe Kazan in a romcom that successfully blends romance and comedy. Paul Cox's Lonely Hearts remains a warm, underrated film. One entry is described as a period-piece love story appealing to both gay and straight audiences.
