This week‘s episode is on The Birdcage, perhaps the best comedy of all time, but not a romcom… then again, hear us out!

We are deeply saddened by the sudden and shocking death of Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner. Our show takes its name from a line out of When Harry Met Sally. Our shared love of that film made us start it in the first place. In that small but very real sense Rob Reiner brought us closer together.

Serendipity is so underrated. The leads‘ chemistry, stacked supporting cast, superb cinematography, great location shoots, amazing soundtrack, the writing just flows. One of those where you wonder why it wasn‘t a bigger hit. More soon on @infrontofira.bsky.social.

Wie großartig ist allein der Podcast-Name „In Front of Ira“. Der Podcast ist auf Englisch und es reden zum Glück mal nicht zwei Dudes über Filme. Es gibt 38 KuWi-RomCom-Besprechungen (auch mit Gästen). Sehr schick!

New episode! We are charmed by Daniel Radcliffe and Zoe Kazan (and Adam Driver and Mackenzie Davis) in „The F Word“, an indie romcom out of Toronto that more people should have seen, but also more people than we thought have seen. Ok, a medium amount of people have seen this. Be one of them!

New episode: Never Been Kissed! Sabrina and Torsten have never been kissed by Michael Vartan, which is a thing they have in common with Drew Barrymore’s character in this teen movie that can’t quite decide what it wants to be, except somehow both charming and problematic. The 90s, man…

New episode! Sabrina and Torsten go to Alaska with Canadian Sandra Bullock and American Ryan Reynolds so she can get a Green Card in „The Proposal“. High jinx ensue, except all jokes about the U.S. immigration system hit different these days. 🙃

New episode out now! @smittermeier.bsky.social and @kathke.com talk about “It’s Complicated,” a movie about Meryl Streep having an affair with her ex Alec Baldwin, John Krasinski reacting to things, and also remodeling a home with Steve Martin. Trust us, it all makes sense.
