The Rom-Com Grows Up
Watch these when you want the modern love story in every register — the giddy fantasy, the one-perfect-day meet-cute, the raunchy hustle, and the version that finally does the math on romance.
Comfort-watch territory built from streaming hits and charming indies that ask little of you, save for Materialists, which trades the laughs for a colder, sharper look at how we date now.
- Red, White & Royal Blue (2023)
- Rye Lane (2023)
- Materialists (2025)
- No Hard Feelings (2023)
- People We Meet on Vacation (2026) — the new one that rhymes with these — a giddy opposites-attract, friends-to-lovers charmer built to be watched with as little effort as Red, White & Royal Blue or No Hard Feelings ask of you.
