- Trouble in Paradise (1932) In this gold-standard screwball caper comedy, a gentleman thief, a lady pickpocket and a Parisian heiress form an elegant triangle, the preferred shape of Ernst Lubitsch — that sublime architect of romantic instability — who loved to test how seemingly solid couples might respond to a good romantic upset.

- 'Crazy, Stupid, Love' (2011) Steve Carell, Ryan Gosling, Julianne Moore, and Emma Stone star in the 2011 romantic comedy Crazy, Stupid, Love. The story follows a recently-divorced and depressed man who strikes a friendship with a womanizer intent on showing him the art of flirting and dating.

- Always Be My Maybe (2019) Two old childhood friends reconnect in Always Be My Maybe, starring Ali Wong and Randall Park. As teens, the pair considered a romantic relationship, but it didn't work out.

- Carol (2015) Mad Men lovers will find a similar aesthetic in Carol, a queer romance set against the backdrop of the repressive 1950s.
