Musician/writer Elizabeth Sankey dives into the past, present and future of romantic comedies, with the hilarious and thoughtful assistance from a chorus of writers, actors and filmmakers

Overview

This documentary goes beneath the surface of our favorite films, seeking to better understand the way we view love, relationships, and romance. From clumsy meet cutes to rain-soaked declarations of love, these films reflect our experiences but are often just as problematic as they are comforting. Helped by a chorus of critics, actors, and filmmakers, and original songs by her band Summer Camp, director Elizabeth Sankey embarks on a journey of investigation and self-discovery.
