GENRE
DEFINITION OF A 
ROMANTIC GENRE 
The romance novel or romantic novel is 
a literary genre. Novels of this type of 
genre fiction place their primary focus 
on the relationship and romantic love 
between two people, and must have an 
"emotionally satisfying and optimistic 
ending."
THE LAST SONG 
• It is a romantic film aimed for young 
demographic (teenagers). 
• Tries to connect with the audience by 
throwing in real life issues, for example, 
Ronnies parents are divorced and she finds 
out her dad has cancer. 
• She goes from hating her father because he 
left but as she spends the summer with him 
her character grows.
RONNIE 
Due to her father walking out she rebels against her parents 
by stealing and hanging out with the wrong sorts. Where as 
before she was a model student and even got accepted to 
Julliard without even applying. She is secretly caring but puts 
up a front. 
As her character grows her clothing and make up 
changes, she starts off wearing all black or monotone 
colours and heavy eye make up to wearing colourful 
clothing and more natural make up.
THE FAULT IN OUR STARS 
• The fault in our stars is a romantic tradegy 
that is based around two teenagers who have 
cancer who fall madly in love while struggling 
to live. 
• This film contrasts with the last song because 
it is based around a more serious life issue and 
is more of a heart throbber guaranteed to 
have anyone in tears.
• Stereotypically 
romances end 
in a ‘optimistic 
ending’ 
however in the 
fault of our 
stars, the 
ending is 
extremely sad 
unlike the last 
song.
