Us Weekly ranks actress Julia Roberts’ top 10 rom-coms, from ‘Pretty Woman’ to ‘Notting Hill’ and more
Only a select few actresses are synonymous with the romantic comedy movie genre —and Julia Roberts is certainly one of them.
“If I had read something that I thought was that Notting Hill level of writing or My Best Friend’s Wedding level of madcap fun, I would do it,” she continued, before adding that the only reason she signed on to star in Ticket to Paradise was because her long-time pal Clooney, was also involved in the project.
While no one, including Roberts’ performance was Oscar-worthy, the film gave tried-and-true rom com lovers what they want — numerous love stories between partners, siblings, mothers, daughters, fathers and sons, showcasing the complexities of family life and parenthood.The 2010 film directed by Garry Marshall walked so Mother’s Day could run.
In the film, Kiki Harrison, played by Roberts, is her famous sister’s personal assistant. Perpetually living in her sibling’s shadow, Kiki falls head-over-heels for her sister’s ex — at one point, the former couple were considered, you guessed it, America’s sweethearts. Kiki attempts to show her crush the truth about her self-centered sister in an attempt to win him over.
Clooney and Roberts have chemistry for a reason, and any time the pair share a screen viewers are sure to enjoy a fun, flirty film that doesn’t try to reinvent the rom com wheel but rather highlights the best parts of the genre.A soundtrack featuring The Chicks, a Roberts and Richard Gere onscreen reunion, and a main female character who is afraid of commitment? Sign. Us. Up.
