Elizabeth Hackett
Elizabeth Hackett’s filmography is basically a highlight reel for anyone who secretly (or not-so-secretly) loves a good rom-com. Let’s talk “A Perfect Pairing” first—it’s that Netflix flick where a high-powered LA wine exec ditches her heels for boots and heads to Australia, trying to charm a bunch of tough sheep ranchers into taking her seriously. Spoiler: wine snobbery doesn’t help you herd sheep, but falling for the brooding, rugged farmhand? Yeah, that’s basically required.
Then there’s “Falling Inn Love” (yes, the pun is strong with this one). Christina Milian's character wins a decrepit inn in New Zealand through an online contest and, naturally, the place is falling apart. Cue the local hot guy who’s handy with a hammer and ready with a smirk. You know where this is going—renovation hijinks, adorable small-town moments, and a decent amount of will-they-won’t-they energy. It’s got all the charm and cheesiness you crave when you want to watch something that feels like a warm hug.
Now, “Love, Guaranteed”—this one’s a bit of a swipe at online dating. Rachel Leigh Cook plays a lawyer hired by a client who’s literally suing a dating website for failing to find him love after a thousand dates (which, honestly, sounds exhausting). Cue banter, legal drama, and—shocker—they might just fall for each other. Hackett’s stuff is the cinematic equivalent of comfort food: predictable in the best way, a little silly, but honestly, who doesn’t need that sometimes?
