‘Journey to Paradise’, the new film by Ol Parker \u2014’Mamma Mia! Again and again’\u2014not only does it mark the return of Julia Roberts to the big screen after four years without appearing in a feature film; it is also the return as the protagonist of what was one of the queens of the romantic comedy<\/strong> from the nineties to the genre after they have spent a whopping 20 years<\/strong> since he signed ‘The couple of the year’ with John Cusack.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“People sometimes misunderstand the length of time I’ve gone without doing a romantic comedy as if I didn’t want to do one. If I read something that was on the level of the ‘Notting Hill’ script or the level of wild fun of ‘The Wedding of my best friend’, I would.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
