Love and laughter down under: The rise of the romcom in Australia
A modicum of romantic comedies (or romcoms) have been produced within Australian cinema, but few filmmakers and academic scholars have embraced the genre. However, the recent release in Australia of a number of successful romantic comedies points to a possible re-emergence.

Morgan (’Discovering Men, Routledge, London, 1992) explains that masculinity is not the possession or non‐possession of certain traits. It has to do with the maintenance of certain kinds of relationships betwee…
