Jack and Nora are joined by screenwriting coach, author, and podcaster Pilar Alessandra to discuss #23 on Vanity Fair’s list of the 42 Best Romantic Comedies of All Time: Four Weddings and a Funeral. In this episode, Nora does some impressive mental gymnastics to justify one infamous line, Jack reveals the worst joke he’s ever written, and Pilar is definitely not pro-bonnet. Dust off your best suit/ floppy hairdo, do NOT forget the rings, and let’s head to the chapel (x4)!

Topics include:

• Who Charles should have ended up with (and who should have won an Oscar)
• Best man speeches
• Paddington 2 (2017)

–

Mysteries we still haven’t solved:

• Who is Pilar’s favorite - Jack or Nora? 
• Why is it called a honeymoon???
