Benny & Joon

A couple are sentimental favorites - I Married an Axe Murderer and Garp have special meanings for me.
If the list was for best romantic comedies of the past 25 years, I'd include both of these. Mike Myers seems inherently uncomfortable being a romantic comedy lead, but that's used to his advantage in SIMAAM. (Yes, I've heard that's because he's gay. Is the parlance of the board still that he might be "a gay," or is it "one of the gays"?)

And Benny & Joon might have been the first film I saw with the always lovely Julianne Moore and the always funny Oliver Platt.

Then again, I don't think you could make a list of 25 watchable romantic comedies MADE in the last 25 years.
