Romantic comedy is a beloved genre, filled with compelling romantic relationships, entertaining friendship dynamics, and hilarious misunderstandings that are guaranteed to delight. However, if you're not a fan of rom-coms, the generic, formulaic, and predictable plot lines and the problematic and regressive story lines that feature in many rom-com films make them impossible to watch. Despite romantic comedy films being the go-to genre for comfort movies, the abundance of formulaic rom-coms makes it difficult to find the well-written and complex gems.

The enemies-to-lovers trope is extremely popular with rom-com fans, but some movies do it better than others. Rom-coms have existed in Hollywood for almost as long as movies, with the first two – Sherlock Jr. and Girl Shy – coming out as silent films in 1924. The movies are popular with audiences due to their balanced combination of romance, drama, and comedy. However, the large amount of variation in tropes makes the movies appealing as well.

Even those in warm climates can pump up the air conditioner, brew a cup of tea, and relax for a couple of hours while a love story plays out, spending time in the fall feeling so many rom-coms evoke.

Of all movie genres, rom-coms can often be accused of repeating themselves, but occasionally, unconventional and unique movies come along that shake things up. While the well-worn story beats of two people coming together only to face some unsurmountable challenge to their love have been done time and time again, other movies found interesting ways to play with this premise and bring something new to the table. This could be through non-linear story structure, fascinating sci-fi premises, or just clever writing that breaks from previously established conventions.

For example, these romantic movie characters. ]]><![CDATA[

INFPs make for some of the greatest characters in fiction due to their quirky and whimsical demeanors. They are especially great in romance films considering the fact that INFPs are some of the most romantic individuals out of all the 16 MBTI® personality types. Quite a few romance movies feature female protagonists with INFP traits, though it's difficult to confirm that they would actually be INFPs without the writer or actor confirming that personality type for them. The female romantic leads are more commonly found with the traits than men though.

Romantic comedies have morphed and changed a lot over the years, and rom-coms where the guy falls firstare becoming increasingly common in modern takes on the genre. This is not as unusual a storytelling device as it once was, as it leads to interesting moments where the guy has to work hard to win over his love interest. However, it is also hard because, in today's society, this is a tightrope the scripts have to walk to ensure that it remains a fun and romantic story, but doesn't tip over into a more disturbing tale of obsession and pressure from a man who won't take no for an answer.

The most iconic '80s actresses helped define the decade and ensured 1980s movies had a lasting legacy. The '80s were a pivotal turning point in Hollywood. Equity feminism began to take force, and the basis for what became third-wave feminism in the '90s slowly took root. Hollywood saw the return of studio-driven films and blockbuster tent-poles after the auteur-focused New Hollywood era of the 1970s. Teen movies achieved their peak, and some of the most enduring and beloved franchises made their big-screen debuts. This opened the door for several '80 actresses to carve out their status as icons of the decade.
