	What about Marty (1955)?

	silver_lining:	Jan 22nd, 2012 at 07:12 GMT		8 points
	I was at first a bit surprised by the lack of movies such as Notting Hill and Love Actually, but then I looked up AFI and found out that it was the American Film Institute, not British!

	Lovenkrands:	Jan 22nd, 2012 at 08:00 GMT		6 points
	Let's start the "What movie is missing" discussion. I'll vote Lady and the Tramp.

	silver_lining:	Jan 22nd, 2012 at 08:07 GMT		4 points
	@Lovenkrands: That's listed under the Top 50 Animated Movies at the same site, so it hasn't missed out.

	@Happ_Hazzard: Is Marty considered a comedy?

	silver_lining "I was at first a bit surprised by the lack of movies such as Notting Hill and Love Actually, but then I looked up AFI and found out that it was the American Film Institute, not British!" But Bridget Jones Diary does make the list. It's hard to define what is a British film & what is an American film with a majority of British cast and crew!

	"Bull Durham" as a romantic comedy? What an injustice.

	Propellerhead:	Jan 22nd, 2012 at 14:21 GMT		1 point
	Geez, folks, go rent City Lights. It's the best movie made in the first fifty years of movies, and 80% of you don't even seem to be aware of it.

	I got everything made since 1979 (when I was 6) and pretty much nothing from before. I like old movies, too. Just haven't seen too many old romantic comedies, I guess.

	Mutford:	Jan 22nd, 2012 at 16:39 GMT		-2 points
	Most romantic comedies are neither funny nor romantic. Worse genre ever.

	Mirrorboy:	Jan 22nd, 2012 at 18:29 GMT		-1 points
	I hate to complain, but I can't believe love actually isn't up there.

	Meltha:	Jan 22nd, 2012 at 18:37 GMT		4 points
	It's strange how many of these movies, very good though they are, actually end pretty sadly.

	anniemax:	Jan 22nd, 2012 at 22:10 GMT		5 points
	Really? 40-year old virgin is a top romantic comedy?

	babyblues:	Jan 22nd, 2012 at 23:52 GMT		2 points
	Harold and Maude! I love that movie.

	Statto2:	Jan 22nd, 2012 at 23:59 GMT		2 points
	@mutford - quite possibly, but these 50 films represent rather less than 50% of all those that have ever been made.

	JacketFan2:	Jan 23rd, 2012 at 00:31 GMT		0 points
	Adam's Rib but not Desk Set? Boo, AFI.

	zutluvip:	Jan 23rd, 2012 at 01:02 GMT		2 points
	Fay Bainter might have had a fairly major role in Woman of the Year, but she wasn't featured. That has to be Tracy or Hepburn.

	jtrichey:	Jan 23rd, 2012 at 01:25 GMT		7 points
	I believe the clue/hint should give us the actors playing both halves of the couple.

	silver_lining:	Jan 23rd, 2012 at 02:00 GMT		1 point
	@IQ_Unknown: Good point, I guess we'll never know.

	mariatortilla:	Jan 23rd, 2012 at 02:38 GMT		0 points
	I don't consider My Best Friend's Wedding to be a romantic comedy at all! I agree that there are plenty of other movies that should have been on the list.

	twarner50:	Jan 23rd, 2012 at 13:53 GMT		2 points
	I guess people really don't like Lost in Translation.

	joshmassey:	Jan 23rd, 2012 at 14:45 GMT		1 point
	@twarner50: Or they don't think it's a comedy.

	spolonsky:	Jan 23rd, 2012 at 17:20 GMT		1 point
	What about "You've Got Mail" (I know it was based on "The Shop Around the Corner") and "The Sure Thing"? C'mon people! I'd also add "Serendipity".

	kthejoker:	Jan 23rd, 2012 at 18:12 GMT		0 points
	No Broadcast News?

	juviejay:	Jan 23rd, 2012 at 18:23 GMT		0 points
	I guess it's not considered one of the best of all time, but I always liked "The Night We Never Met."

	It is on the list. Finished 3rd overall.

	Tom_Tildrum:	Jan 26th, 2012 at 20:26 GMT		2 points
	Man, when I saw Tom Hanks in 1984, I thought for sure they were going for "Bachelor Party."

	Roman Holiday is so wonderful that every time I see it on TV, I'm startled to rediscover that it was black and white. In my memory, it's forever in color.

	Oddish:	Jan 31st, 2012 at 00:31 GMT		3 points
	I know it's been said already, but why would you make a quiz and only include one person in the romantic couple?? A "featured" actor or actress just doesn't make sense for this context.

	LAX_Girl:	Feb 23rd, 2012 at 13:44 GMT		1 point
	I have no idea what compelled me to try To Kill A Mockingbird for Gregory Peck.

	countrygirltori:	Jan 26th, 2013 at 06:01 GMT		1 point
	"The Awful Truth" and "Philadelphia Story" are my favorite movies of all time! Love them!

	BonnieH:	Jan 26th, 2013 at 10:58 GMT		1 point
	I normally love AFI's lists but I just can't agree with this one. City Lights #1? Seriously? I'd give it a place on the list but no way it's #1. For my money, #1 is Roman Holiday and #2 is When Harry Met Sally. And maybe "romantic" is stretching it a bit, but I'd put Some Like It Hot on this list as well.
