Love Notes: Catch a Rom-Com at MJR Partridge Creek

Check Patch's 'Love Notes' each day to find quick Valentine's-themed gifts and ideas to celebrate the season of love in and around Shelby Township and Utica.

Because love and laughter often go hand-in-hand, catching a romantic comedy at the local movie theater is a great way to get in the Valentine's mood.

However, not everyone is cut out for rom-com. To help you decide what type of flick is best for you, consider which of the following statements fits your line of thought:

A) Valentine's Day is a purely commercial venture designed to lower buyers' self-esteem so drastically that it is child's play to convince them that love can be bought through clothes, jewelry, chocolates and body spray–all of which have the potential to ruin one's health, wallet and nasal passages.

B) Valentine's Day is a holiday to be shared with those you love–family, friends and sweethearts.

If you chose the option A, you'll want to opt for Meryl Streep's British biopic, The Iron Lady, or the tear-jerking drama, War Horse. At some later date, you'll also want to seek professional help.
