It Happened One Night

I guess I should just live on trains from now on after all these romance films, so I can meet the love of my life ☹️. 3.5/5

We watched this in my film class (aka 200 STEM majors needing an art credit) and none of us expected much. But it had us sleep-deprived premeds/engineers laughing every scene! We gasped at the surprises, yelled at the obstacles, and CHEERED when the Walls of Jericho fell. 10/10

chemistry off the charts

Idk who recommended this to me. It was a refreshing watch. I hadn’t realised how old the movie was and I went into it blind. Ig this was the birth of the rich girl poor boy trope. It was an alright watch. Cool to see how different things were back then.

Yup, all of the rom-com cliches are there, but it was a lot of fun to see where they all pretty much originated from. What I find most fascinating is that it's from 1934, but most of it doesn't feel dated, especially the dialogue. They definitely got the most important aspect right, which is the chemistry between Clark Gable & Claudette Colbert.
