Words are over

For those who ask for something more than a typical romantic comedy, there's no need for words, a film halfway between drama and comedy with a good script and, above all, the brilliant performance of James Gandolfini and Julia Louis- Dreyfus. Eva is a separated woman whose daughter is about to leave for university, something she doesn't take well at all. On the other hand, Albert is a sweet and funny man who also struggles with loneliness. They both get to know each other and get closer until Eva discovers that Albert is the ex-husband of a woman with whom she has become very good friends and who has told her all the secrets of her failed marriage.

Nostalgic for the 90s?

If there's one thing we all agree on, it's that anything Meryl Streep does is worth watching.

When Harry Met Sally

On the other hand, if you miss the Meg Ryan of the 80s and 90s, it never hurts to revisit When Harry Met Sally. Although several aspects of the story do not survive today's purple glasses, it is interesting to see how Nora Ephron's script and Rob Reiner's direction continue to maintain their freshness more than 30 years later. Harry and Sally are two students who share a car ride to move to New York. The years go by and, one day, they both meet again, after which a beautiful friendship arises. He is convinced that friendship between men and women does not exist, but she has the opposite opinion.

Ryan Gosling is, for many, more than enough reason to see this film, whose cast is completed by Steve Carell, Julianne Moore and Emma Stone. Almost nothing.

From that moment on, Cal befriends Jacob, a casanova who will give him the tricks to enjoy his bachelorhood again. Meanwhile, Jacob begins dating Hanna, a somewhat skeptical college girl.
