Focusing on a wide range of well-known films (including Working Girl, Murphy's Romance, Peggy Sue Got Married, When Harry Met Sally, and Green Card), this book explores the complex ways in which recent cultural discourses on gender and sexuality have found their way into the apparently inflexible structure of romantic comedy.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Worth reading couple of times, but only if you are REALLY,
This review is from: Terms of Endearment (Paperback)
interested in this particular subject. This book does talk about romance in Hollywood comedies of 80's and 90's. Sometimes parallels are drawn with the older films. All argumemnts are based on classical film theory. Interesting book, but not the most essential on the subject+ too expensive, in my opinion.
