✨ TWO FOR TUESDAY: Rom-Coms I Could Watch Over & Over ✨
✨ TWO FOR TUESDAY: Rom-Coms I Could Watch Over & Over ✨
Some movies just feel like a warm blanket and your favorite latte — comforting, familiar, and guaranteed to put you in a good mood no matter how many times you watch them. For this week’s Two for Tuesday, I’m sharing two rom-coms I could rewatch forever. They’re sweet, funny, a little chaotic, and the perfect escape when you want something light and heartwarming.
Whether you need a holiday pick-me-up or a cheesy (literally) New York love story, these two films are everything.
🎄 HOLIDATE (2020) — Netflix
If there’s one movie I return to every single November–February, it’s Holidate.
The story follows Sloane and Jackson, two strangers who are simply done with the pressures of being single around the holidays. Their solution? A pact to be each other’s drama-free, expectation-free, strictly platonic plus-ones for every holiday of the year.
No feelings. No complications. No strings attached… obviously, that goes terribly.
Why I love it:
Holidate has that perfect blend of chaotic humor, holiday sparkle, and genuine chemistry. Emma Roberts and Luke Bracey bounce off each other in the funniest ways. The banter feels natural, the situations are wild (in the best rom-com way), and the slow shift from “we’re just doing this for convenience” to “oh no… I actually care about you” is chef’s kiss.
It’s one of those movies where you catch new little moments on every rewatch. It also nails that nostalgic holiday-movie comfort while still feeling modern and fun.
Definitely a year-round comfort-watch, even if you just want background coziness with your coffee.
🍕 LITTLE ITALY (2018) — Tubi
If comfort had a flavor, it would taste like pizza, rain on a New York sidewalk, and a childhood-friends-to-lovers glow. Little Italy is cheesy (pun intended), dramatic, adorable, and the type of movie that knows exactly what it is — and embraces every second.
The story centers on Nikki Angioli and Leo Campo, two best friends whose families own rival pizzerias in New York. Think Romeo and Juliet but with pizza ovens, family feuds, and a dash of ridiculousness. When their friendship turns into romance, the feud gets even messier… and even funnier.
Why I love it:
This movie is the definition of a comfort rom-com. It’s light, cute, and absolutely not meant to be taken too seriously. The chemistry between the leads feels soft and nostalgic, like two people who were always meant to find their way back to one another.
Between the family chaos, the neighborhood gossip, the cooking montages, and the sweet romance, Little Italy is a feel-good movie you can throw on anytime you need something simple, warm, and adorable.
Plus, anything set in New York immediately has my heart.
And it streams for free, which makes rewatching way too easy.
☕ Final Thoughts
Both of these films give me that cozy “curl up with a blanket and a latte” energy. They’re light, rewatchable, and filled with the kind of rom-com magic that never gets old. If you’re looking for comfort movies to add to your rotation, Holidate and Little Italy are perfect picks.
