'The Proposal' director Anne Fletcher is just not that into romantic comedies

Here's the thing: "The Proposal" may look like a big, fat romantic comedy, but the film's director, Anne Fletcher, has other ideas. Sure, it stars Sandra Bullock, and, yes, she and Ryan Reynolds play feuding co-workers who probably (definitely) wind up falling for each other by the movie's end. But Fletcher, a dancer-choreographer turned director, says at its heart the movie is pure screwball fun.
