Rom-com fanatics will remember well the 80-carat diamond necklace Kate Hudson wears in the last scenes of How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. In the movie, playboy and advertising specialist Benjamin Barry must prove to his boss that he’s the right guy to lead a diamond campaign. His boss isn’t convinced that beer-guzzling Barry knows enough about romance to sell diamonds. To prove otherwise, Barry promises he can get Andie Anderson (played by Hudson) to fall in love with him in ten days.
It works. In the final scenes, at an event for the diamond company, Barry’s boss doesn’t even ask Anderson if she’s in love. He looks at the necklace hung around her neck and observes: “No diamond sparkles like a woman in love.”
