Rom-Com genre presentnation
By Amber House, 20171659
‘fundermentally a rom-com is the primary comedic tension will be between the central romantic relationship.’
Symbolic and technical codes to Rom-Coms
though there are many different plot twists, charatcer development and storyline however in a rom com without a doubt we see symbols that remain as the fundemantal parts or a rom-com being a ring, romantic contact between the two characters, the dress, a date, pink and or red being symbolised in any way within the movie, comedic side character, hate to love romance.

One good example is the Rom-com 'isnt it romantic' becuase it has a unique storyline that includes good plot twists however it still includes the key symbolisms such as a kiss and the romantic tension between the characters.
Genres are “specific variations of the interplay of codes” which moved from one film to the next through a process of “repetition and difference”. (Ste Neale)
