Four Weddings And A Funeral
Four Weddings and a Funeral deviates from the traditional rom-com formula. Rather than delivering its plot in a perfect linear sequence, it follows a group of friends as they attend multiple weddings, allowing viewers to fill in the blanks in the period between weddings. Because of its distinct storytelling style, this rom-com sticks out from the throng.
