    City Lights and Wrapping Up the Podcast

    This special and final edition of Rom Com Dot Com reviews Charlie Chaplin's acclaimed film City Lights! I discuss the classic Tramp character, and the hoops only Chaplin could jump through to get this film made. After the review, I rattle off my personal rankings of each film on the list, and even mention some ones that I think were overlooked by the list. It's a must-listen-to episode you won't want to miss!

    Annie Hall with Cori Eckert and Katelyn Terry

    I have some complicated views about this week's addition of Rom Com Dot Com - Woody Allen's first "serious" film,  Annie Hall. Cori Eckert and Katelyn Terry join me to relish the sheer authenticity and humor of this classic flick. We also do a deep dive into Allen's personal life, and attempt to answer a challenging question: to what extend can you separate an artist from their work?

    It Happened One Night with Danny Gutierrez

    Danny Gutierrez joins me to review Frank Capra's 1934 classic, It Happened One Night! This is the movie that set the template for the traditional romantic comedy, and it was an absolute joy to detail its influence on American cinema. Join us as we discuss the behind the scenes details that threatened to tarnish It Happened One Night's legacy, as well as Clark Gable's lack of an undershirt (hottie alert!) We even compare this film to Call Me By Your Name. Who saw that coming?

    When Harry Met Sally with Hunter Gasaway

    This episode reunites me with an old friend and fellow cinephile, Hunter Gasaway! We marvel at the magic of When Harry Met Sally, and discuss the strength of Rob Reiner's confident direction when paired with Nora Ephron's outstanding screenplay. Billy Chrystal's oversized sweaters, wagon wheel coffee tables, orgasmic diners, and spoilers are mentioned as we laud this forever classic. We also pose the age-old question: Can men and women really just be friends?

    Adam's Rib with Katelyn Terry

    The critics love Adam's Rib, and we....um....we are undecided. Join Katelyn and I as we discuss Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy's longterm romance, Judy Holliday's rise to Hollywood stardom, and the cinematic classic Blades of Glory. Holliday is not the only one on trial here; we also call this film's potentially problematic depiction of feminism into question.

    Harold and Maude with Mary Knapton

    This week's episode of Rom Com Dot Com reviews Harold and Maude, the cult classic tale of death and May-December romance. This was a first time watch for both Mary and I, and although our discussion is filled with mixed emotions, it was an overall treat to watch. We delve into the implications of the age-gap relationship, the aging of the comedy, and age in general. Does this sound like an ageless classic? Listen to find out!

    Sleepless in Seattle with Audrey Supan

    Welcome to Rom Com Dot Com, the weekly podcast that reviews the American Film Institutes' list of the 10 best romantic comedies of all time. This episode covers Nora Ephron's classic tale of love, separation, and late-night radio broadcasts, Sleepless in Seattle. We delve into Ephron's history as a filmmaker, Hanks' and Ryan's timeless performances as the romantic leads, and the story's blatantly problematic premise. We may not be as interesting as Dr. Marsha Fieldstone, but if you are looking for a meaty chat, we promise to deliver.
