In my group, we all came together and pitched our ideas to see who has the best synopsis for the romantic comedy (coursework task). Once we heard all the ideas, we chose Tanisha's idea and the synopsis is of a young lady that is very ugly and has always stood out because of this insecurity of hers, however she has become very rich over time and she uses her money to have plastic surgery. Once she has a plastic surgery makeover, she is very beautiful and instantly meets a guy and they fall in love. The guy then wants to introduce her to his parents and this makes her tell him that she's had plastic surgery, this then makes him confess that he was also in the same situation as her. So this makes their love stronger knowing that they are both of the same kind, and they change back to how they were before and live happily ever after.
I think that this is a good synopsis for a romantic comedy because it matches many codes and conventions. The fact that the guy and girl fall in love is a major convention and also a stereotype that will help the audience to identify the genre. The big problem "ugliness" also compliments the genre as this is whats fought against to result in a happy ending.
