WKNDwatchlist – The Price of Forever: Eternity, The Materialists, It Could Happen to You
This week, we’re talking about three feel-good romance comedy dramas in The Price of Forever: Eternity, The Materialists and It Could Happen to You.
Hey, what are you watching this weekend? Welcome to the WKNDwatchlist. I’m Spling. We’re talking about three romcoms in The Price of Forever.
Eternity
Eternity is an unconventional modern screwball romcom that finds a woman having to pick between a longtime husband and a cherished love lost too soon when she gets to heaven. This is a funny, imaginative, playful and introspective comedy with solid performances, smart writing, and delightful world-building.
The Materialists
Celine Song returns with The Materialists, pivoting from the heartbreak and tenderness of Past Lives to a lighter, star-studded Hollywood romance centred on a professional matchmaker. It’s a thoughtful look at the collision of love and money in modern dating. Sharp, stylish, and deeply contemporary, it’s a sophisticated romcom.
It Could Happen to You
A charming New York fairy tale, It Could Happen to You is the ultimate feel-good romcom inspired by a true story. It follows a cop who keeps his word, splitting a lottery win with a waitress. It’s light, optimistic, and packed with heart. A nostalgic classic that overcomes its shortfalls and proves nice guys don’t always finish last.
