This story follows two terminally ill teens this leads to a tragic story. However, the relashonship the two form while accomplishing their last wish leads to a tug on the heartstrings in this tragic but beautiful story.

Editor’s 4th choice

Clueless Clueless

When Tai becomes more popular than she is, Cher realizes that her disapproving ex-stepbrother (Paul Rudd) was right about how misguided she was. This changes her feelings for him and she falls for him.

Pretty In Pink is a classic and the editors 3rd choice. Choosing two guys can be hard, it can be harder when both of them like the same person. That’s why this is my third favorite movie.

La La Land La La Land

But as success mounts they are faced with decisions that begin to fray the fragile fabric of their love affair, and the dreams they worked so hard to maintain in each other threaten to be apart from each other.

Clueless is a more comedy and the editors 4th favorite movie, despite all the comedy the romance is a bit lackluster.

La La Land is the editors 5th favorite Rom-Com movie, recemmend it for all who love musicals and who love two people who fight to stay together.

Bros is the editors 6th favorite Rom-Com movie, despide it’s atimes crude nature it can be a very comedic watch.
