This is one that I would choose to watch on my own, even now, and Klein and Reno are a huge part of my reasoning for that. <br /><br />Satia: He's so good in this movie that I allow myself to forget that it's a rom-com. I've not seen Cyrano de Bergerac, but I've heard really good things about it. I need to start watching more French films, I think. <br /><br />Sarah: The whole train sequence is fantastic, as is the rest of the movie. :)<br /><br />Ellie: Most of the "chick flicks" that I actually like to watch are from the 90s. French Kiss, Sabrina (the original is great, too), While You Were Sleeping. I agree that today's "romantic" films don't stand up to the ones made in the 90s. <br /><br />Jason: I haven't been able to find a copy of this movie, so I'm jealous that you have. It's such a good film. I hope you enjoy it. :)gabrielreadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11809365791580695386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4515719778921089707.post-51646332843447333732011-07-18T14:43:21.429-04:002011-07-18T14:43:21.429-04:00I love me a good romantic comedy and you make a co...I love me a good romantic comedy and you make a compelling argument to seek this film out. Surprisingly enough,I often see it in the $5 DVD bin at my local grocery store so I'll be picking it up next time.Jason C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14711508923092264172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4515719778921089707.post-79670485977133538942011-07-16T05:49:55.487-04:002011-07-16T05:49:55.487-04:00Awww I really like Meg Ryan films, I'm not a h...Awww I really like Meg Ryan films, I'm not a huge fan of the current style of romcom but I like the ones from the 90s!Elliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14377404526123600035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4515719778921089707.post-76659905869604754892011-07-15T17:40:00.013-04:002011-07-15T17:40:00.013-04:00I was tempted to cover this for Paris in July too,...I was tempted to cover this for Paris in July too, since I love this one. Probably one of my favorite Rom-Coms.

I adore this film. It is perfectly cast, brilliantly filmed, flawless from beginning to end. The first time I watched it I had to pause it during the final scene because I was crying so much I couldn't even read the subtitles.Satiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03227625739706115993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4515719778921089707.post-76460096814977561332011-07-15T14:21:36.178-04:002011-07-15T14:21:36.178-04:00I like this movie, too --- I'm a fan of both K...I like this movie, too --- I'm a fan of both Kevin Kline and Jean Reno -- and there are parts of this movie that are so funny. The part where Meg whams into the dessert cart when she's trying to spy on Charlie always makes me scream with laughter. :)Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03456689516505172959noreply@blogger.com
