Eastchester School Budget Failed

Was mildly* surprised -- I live in a different town, not too far away, and thought there were enough responsible parents there. Was there some unusual issue for the budget, some controversial thing that set it apart from prior years?

*Or was it the MAGAe who just want to burn everything down?

Ostensible Action/Guy Movies that are Actually Romance/Romcoms

I'm thinking about those 80s films that were clearly marketed as action/adventure, and indeed had a lot of that, but were actually successfully-veiled romance films, but male-centric enough to be fun for husbands as well. Thinking stuff like Crocodile Dundee, Romancing the Stone.

One could make an argument that this applies to Raiders, but that's more of an action movie with some romance thrown in. I'm looking for stuff that is actually a romance, but dressed up in plenty of action/adventure.

Any other good examples from the 90s onwards (yes, aware of the sequels to those noted above). And I don't mean cheesy CGI messes with bad scripts like Passengers.

Thanks!
