Palm Springs and 3 Other Best Romantic Comedies if You Liked Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy
These movies will give a dreamy mood even to those who are lonely.
On February 13, Peacock released the movie Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy – the fourth installment in the adventures of the beloved journalist.
Although Valentine's Day has already passed, we recommend continuing the rom-com marathon – because there can never be enough love and humor.
1. Palm Springs, 2020
Nyles finds himself in a time loop at the wedding of his friend. Day after day, he lives the same life until another guest, Sarah, joins him. And with her comes the hope that all this can stop and become a little more fun.
Palm Springs is not just a rom-com, it is the best Groundhog Day movie since Groundhog Day. This is proven not only by the sparkling humor and the incredible tandem of the leads, but also by the fact that the film was bought for a record amount at the Sundance Festival at the time.
2. Sing Street, 2016
A boy meets a girl. The boy wants to make the girl like him, so he tells her he's in a band. And the girl is also a model, so he invites her not on a date, but to be in a music video. Now all the boy has to do is put the band together.
Sing Street is one of three musical melodramas by Irish director John Carney and the most memorable of the genre.
You don't have to go far to prove it – just turn on the movie once and the next day you'll probably be sitting on the couch surrounded by rabbits, dressed in your grandmother's clothes, picking out songs on the guitar and recording yourself on an old camera.
3. Ruby Sparks, 2012
A young, talented writer has made a big breakthrough and published a successful novel, but now he is in a creative crisis. His personal life is also a blank slate.
Without thinking twice, he decides to describe his perfect girl and write a new book at the same time. But soon his main character, named Ruby Sparks, materializes in reality and does exactly what he writes about.
4. Two Weeks Notice, 2002
New York lawyer Lucy specializes in urban preservation. By chance, she becomes the personal assistant to the millionaire George.
He has a reputation as a womanizer, but George is not a bad person. He just behaves like a big child and cannot take a step without Lucy's advice.
Lucy's patience breaks when the boss finds a task for her even on the day of her friends' wedding. The woman submits her resignation, but thinks twice when she sees her replacement. Then it dawns on her that George means a lot more to her than she ever wanted to believe.
