Sandra Bullock Back in Romantic Comedies

Gina Wilhelm Actress - Sandra Bullock Back in Romantic Comedies

After finishing 2002's "Two Week's Notice," Sandra Bullock decided she was done with romantic comedies.

Her explanation was that, "they're not funny, they're not romantic, they're not written well for women anymore...I did the last good one. I'm done."

This, of course, after she'd made several films in the genre, including "While You Were Sleeping," "Practical Magic," and "Forces of Nature."

Then she got the script for "The Proposal."

Bullock turned down the script several times before someone finally convinced her to actually read it.

In the film, she plays a hard-edged Canadian book editor who blackmails her assistant into marrying her so she can stay in the country.

She loved that her character isn't just another girl next door. Instead, she had the sort of mean and politically incorrect lines that sent test audiences gasping.

"Being nice and adorable isn't funny. I enjoyed being a bitch. Everyone does. They are always better written and it's a relief," Bullock explained.

As someone who often gets cast in the "bitch" role and whose favorite part is STILL the Wicked Witch in "The Wizard of Oz," Gina Wilhelm Actress wholeheartedly concurs!
