I watch When Harry Met Sally every year or two. So good that it feels cheap to call it a romantic comedy. Really elevates the genre.
There is nothing better than a great romantic-comedy IMO (Groundhog Day, Four Weddings and a Funeral, The Big Sick, Bridesmaids, Bringing Up Baby, His Girl Friday, Roxanne, The Princess Bride, Life is Beautiful, Ninotchka, Chasing Amy, The Wedding Singer, High Fidelity, Enchanted, Shakespeare in Love etc). It's just that there are so many bad ones made that it's easy to miss the good stuff. I reckon their are way more bad Horror movies released every week into theaters, than bad rom-coms but the Horror label doesn't have the same negative connotations for some reason? Plus it's easy to make somebody jump, making an audience care, feel and laugh takes skill and even then you can't please everybody. Jump scares always work on everyone.
