Anne Hathaway Reframes The Romantic Comedy Genre In The Idea Of You
Romantic comedies have often followed the same formula, focusing on a young couple in their late 20s at most. However, Anne Hathaway reframes the genre in The Idea of You, starring as the almost 40-year-old love interest of a 24-year-old pop star, played by Nicholas Galitzine. The movie plays out like a fantasy but makes a much larger point about the value of women, challenging stereotypes about age and relationships.
