What Do You Think is the Most Romantic Movie Ever?
I know it's the day after Valentines but what the heck. What movie do you feel is the perfect romance and why? I would have to say "Gone With the Wind". Funny because it was my mother's favorite too. I remember as a teen she took me to see it for the first time. Of course it didn't really do too much for me then. She also passed the book on to me. That was much better and after a few years I saw the movie again and now I understood the characters.
Pity crushing on Leslie Howard and Clark Gable when they've been gone for so long. But Clark Gable stood the test of time. Even compared to sex symbols of the present day...Clark as Rhett Butler, MWWWRRRROWWR. The thing I love about this movie besides the stars is it was the way great movies used to be. No shades of gray or people being crazed weasels. They left things to the audiences imagination.
Like when Rhett hauls Scarlett up that staircase, you just know the house was a rockin', they didn't have to be graphic. Scarlett all happy the next morning said it all. Yes the portrayal of blacks in this movie is an abomination...But just concentrating on Rhett and Scarlett...Oh and IMHO he does ultimately go back to her. They knew each other too well. He probably goes to town and Belle Watling talks him into going home.
So whats your favorite romance?

Romance movies are hard to navigate. Gone With The Wind is wonderful, but the ending is too sad. Love Actually is a sweet love story (stories) and the ending makes me smile. And even though it isn't really one of my favorites, I think The Notebook is pretty high on the list. I guess it depends if I want happy love or heart-wrenching love.

Even the one before with Charles Boyer and Irene Dunn was almost as good but Boyer held back so much it didn't have as much impact as Deborah Kerr had with Cary Grant. I can't think of the title but Ronald Colman and Greer Garson excelled in the one where Colman was the Major from World War One who walked out of the sanatorium,became a politician, Garson was his secretary, and he got his memory back when he wandered back to the cottage they had lived in before.
