One of the conventions of romantic comedy films is the funny parts and contrived encounter of two potential romantic partners in unusual or comic circumstances, which some have called a "meet-cute" situation. During a "meet-cute", humour is created by the awkwardness between the two potential partners by depicting an initial clash of personalities or beliefs, an embarrassing situation, or by introducing a comical misunderstanding or mistaken identity situation. Meet cute is sometimes described as "when boy meets girl in a cute way."
In many romantic comedies, the potential couple comprises polar opposites, two people of different temperaments, situations, social statuses, or all three, who would not meet or talk under normal circumstances, and the meet cute's contrived situation provides the opportunity for these two people to meet.
Examples of such films include:
Ground hog day, this film is especially similar to our short film as he does the same thing over and over again after learning from his mistakes. This is a great example of romantic comedy also as it is funny, centered on romantic ideals and has a happy ending.
This is another romantic comedy, which is similar to ours. Any mistakes that are made can be rectified the next day and again and again. The film is funny, but also about overcoming obstacles in the search of love. Another great example of romantic comedy.
