Conventions Of Romance Genre


Romance



What is true love? Does love at first sight exist? Why do all romance film portray a perfect ending.
The lead is often vulnerable, socially awkward often in a situation where they have just had a hard time romantically. He/She will fall for the unattainable memeber of the opposite sex. There will be something stopping them from being together most normally a love triangle.

Romantic movies can be divided into many sub-genres, the romantic comedy being the most popular, with an almost universal audience. Teen romances have distinct cliches, such as the jock and cheerleader characters, and many romances are set around a particular situation, such as a wedding or a party. Other romances can span years, such as The Notebook or time travel romance The Time Traveller's Wife.
