Today on our collaborative ‪@NetflixSports‬ series “Take Two," we're exploring the question of whether or not romantic comedies ruin us for love:    • Do Rom-Coms Teach Us How to Love or Ruin L...   Watch it now on the Netflix Film Club YouTube channel! | With her storied charm, politesse and grit, she’s a staple of on-screen depictions of American life below the Mason-Dixon line: she’s the Southern Woman.
