The folks at Comparitech dug into some Google Trends data and found the rom-coms that are most popular in each state.
Pennsylvania’s favorite is “Silver Linings Playbook,” shot in Philadelphia Jennifer Lawrence earned a best actress Academy Award for her role as Tiffany, a woman who pledges to help a struggling Pat Solatano (Bradley Cooper) reunite with his wife. The movie is adapted from Matthew Quick’s novel of the same name. Pittsburghers will need to endure a subplot involving the Philadelphia Eagles.
