- TV & Film
Once upon a time, Katie's husband used to travel for work. While sitting alone and bored in hotels and airports, he started watching rom-coms to fill the time. As one does. He started insisting that Katie watch the rom-coms with him when he got home. Sometimes, this was a sweet gesture. He wanted her to enjoy a cute or funny movie with him. Aw. Other times, it was just because the movie was so bad he needed someone else to validate his suffering and suffer too. Enter Lydea, the couple's friend, who finds the forced rom-com watching thing very funny and wants to watch them too for some unknown reason.
Not going to lie, folks, we have watched some absolute duds of movies, but we've watched some amazing ones too. Be prepared for spoilers--in fact, just assume there will be spoilers everywhere--and come join us as we review the rom-coms Katie's dear, sweet husband made her watch.

It makes a lot more sense. Frances, played by Diane Lane, is a writer recovering from a recent divorce. She takes the advice of her best friend, Patti, played b...
