I cannot stand romance, but My Big Fat Greek wedding is pretty entertaining. I should reiterate. I don’t like sappy romance.

It’s such a relatable movie too there’s no grand gestures (as nice as they seem they’re just not realistic to me), love triangles, or a stupid miscommunication trope.

It’s so simple and I love that.

Have you tried spraying Windex on movies you do not like?

I remember when the movie came out on VHS, it came with a bottle of Windex!

Similar for me, but with a different movie - The Holiday. Two women who have bad relationships end up swapping houses for Christmas and each others' social circles help them out of their ruts.

I much prefer Iris' story compared to Amanda's, even if I do like her storyline as well. Iris makes friends with an old Hollywood screenwriter who knows all about how stories and outright uses his knowledge of movies to help her recognise her own flaws and strengths.

My wife loves this film. She always put it on in the early days.
