In further proof that time is a social construct and the post-COVID era is a years-sucking wormhole, "Crazy, Stupid, Love" is turning 15 this year, a fact that feels shocking given that the romantic comedy — which was directed by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa, and written by Dan Fogelman — still feels just as fresh and funny a decade-plus later.
With an all-star cast including Steve Carell, Ryan Gosling, Julianne Moore, Emma Stone, Marisa Tomei and Kevin Bacon, "Crazy, Stupid, Love" has joined the pantheon of great rom-coms due to its heart and humor, of course, but also because it features one of the best twists that the genre has ever produced. (Seriously, even M. Night Shyamalan would be impressed how they managed to interweave those seemingly disconnected storylines in that mid-movie shocker.)
