How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
Andie Anderson(Kate Hudson) is a magazine writer for Composure, a women’s magazine, and is famously known as the How-to girl. She decides to figure out how to lose a guy in only 10 days! Enter: Benjamin Barry(Matthew McConaughey), an advertising executive, who eagerly accepts a bet to win a huge campaign. The question is can Ben make a woman fall in love with him in 10 days. This movie follows Andie and Ben as the two unknowingly trick each other in order to get what they want. However, what happens when they start falling in love with each other? A wonderful movie filled with hilarious comedy and romance that will help you feel that love is in the air.
Pretty Woman
This romantic comedy is your average fairy tale love story with Julia Roberts as the Princess and Richard Gere as the dashing Prince Charming. Edward Lewis(Gere), a wealthy businessman, picks up Vivian Ward, a prostitute, while looking for directions to Beverly Hills. Edward hires Vivian for the weekend and the two get closer and before they realize it they’re falling for each other. The two must overcome the fact that they are from completely different worlds in order to be happy with each other. With the city of angels as the backdrop for this movie we get iconic scenes of Vivian strolling down Rodeo Drive and an artistic montage of Vivian taking advantage of Edward’s wallet while Roy Orbison’s Oh, Pretty Woman plays in the background. Both Roberts and Gere have palpable chemistry that would have anyone cheering for them to live happily ever after and it also works in their favor that the two look like a match made in heaven.
When Harry Met Sally
Can a man and woman just be friends? The age-old question is answered with a simple no by this movie which follows Harry Burns(Billy Crystal) and Sally Abright(Meg Ryan). This movie has been described as a timeless romance that seems to always gain extra fans every New Year’s Eve. Overall the movie deals with important themes of both love and friendship and these themes are artfully depicted on screen by Crystal and Ryan who have an undeniable amount of chemistry between them.
Have an amazing Valentine’s Day and enjoy all the sugary sweets this season has to offer!
