When I was a teenager, I read a book by Sidney sheldon and told my cousin
brother-
“Sidney sheldon is an awful writer”
My brother didn’t argue with me he said-
Which book did you read?
when I told him the name, –Bloodline he said its one of the worst and told
me to read “Master of the game”
20 years later, Sidney Sheldon is my favorite author and I am grateful to
my bro
for letting me know my choice of book was not correct to judge the
writer.
I would have missed reading the some of the best thriller+mystery novels
had
I not pushed my horizons.
So I asked all my friends on FB and here is the list of all the best
Rom-Coms of all time and 3 imp points-
1)Most are hits and allare classics- widely liked by public
2) I didn’t include any Meg ryan’s movies though hers are the best (You’ve
got mail, When Harry Met Sally)
3) None of these have the cliched ending (In some the hero heroine do Not
end up together)
4) Main in Manhattan was Jennifer’s biggest hit but it was not the “Biggest
hit” in rom-com. (its not even in top 50 list of rom-coms anywhere)
Not necessary for you to watch all of them- not necessary for you to even
reply to this mail-
its just so that you know there is a genre- which is hardly made in India
and which is
the one we can very easily watch with our kids. [coz its rom-com not
romantic with hard core love scenes]
