depplover_1980 Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 What is your favourite romantic film, whether it be realistic or a total pass the bucket fantasy? Mine is Somethings Gotta Give with Jack Nicholson and Helen Hunt. Strips bare the pangs of an old commitment phobe and a struggling young mum. Brilliant brilliant movie.
Nexus One Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 - The blue lagoon - The notebook - Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain
xpaperxcutx Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 The Ugly Truth with Katherine Heigl. Surprisingly, she can act.
Jazzari Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 "While you Were Sleeping" with Sandra Bullock.
xpaperxcutx Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 "While you Were Sleeping" with Sandra Bullock. Awesome, awesome movie. Great chemistry between Bill Pullman and Sandra B. I also have to say, the Lake House with Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves. It made me cry.
StalledGirl Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 Not a huge romantic film fan but the following stand out... Blithe Spirit Betty Blue A matter of life and death Breakfast at tiffany's

Eeyore79 Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 I recently saw a movie called Good Dick. It was an unconventional romance; I quite liked it
daphne Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 Piano Pillow Book Moulin Rouge Brokeback Mountain Notebook & of course Out of Africa and English Patient. There can't just be one.
cerridwen Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 Brokeback Mountain--good choice Daphne Love Actually
East7 Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 These two are not very known but very romantic : - Before the sunrise (Ethan Hawke, Julie Delpy) they meet 10 years after in Paris - Before sunset
Taramere Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 These two are not very known but very romantic : - Before the sunrise (Ethan Hawke, Julie Delpy) they meet 10 years after in Paris - Before sunset Before Sunset is also my favourite. I was in my mid thirties when I saw it, (so same age as the film's characters) and I could really relate to the storyline. The friend I went to see it with and I both walked out of the cinema in tears. Not just slightly tearful, but full on crying like a pair of lushes after too many gins. Very embarrassing.

Yeah very nice story (and book) and I think everyone is frustrated why they can't end up together..."Baby, you're gonna miss that plane" Two people that love each-other and can't be together, that's worse than unrequited love. If you want to cry again I suggest you: - If only (Jeniffer Love Hewitt) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XUHCGbP6d4A
O'Malley Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 I recently saw a movie called Good Dick. It was an unconventional romance; I quite liked it There were some really good understated performances in that film, especially Tom Arnold's role. One of my favorite romantic films (no sex but plenty of awareness and tension) is Black Narcissus.
JohnnyCage Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 The Notebook 7 Pounds I loved Wicker Park (Josh Hartnett) Titanic Legends of the Fall was quite good too

PerpetualMotion Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 I actually enjoyed these (not my favorites though): - Definitely, Maybe - The Painted Veil - Serendipity The trailer reminded me of Butterfly Effect. Is it on the same lines? It's more like Groundhog Day without the comedy part and the day only repeats one time.
Anela Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 "While you Were Sleeping" with Sandra Bullock. I love this one, too.
