Valentine's Day is a day of love and romance, candy and cards, but it is also the perfect time to cuddle next to your love and truly appreciate each other. Turn the lights down low, grab a blanket and pop in a movie that reflects the lovey-dovey mood.
Can't choose a movie? Here is a top ten list of romantic movies to assist in your search.
1. "Gone with the Wind" (1939) Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable as Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler. "Frankly, my dear," this film needs no introduction or synopsis. This is CLASSIC Hollywood romance.
2. "Roman Holiday" (1953) Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck star as Princess Ann and Joe Bradley who embark on a tour of Rome together. Hepburn is fantastic as sheltered princess Ann as she rebels against her itinerary and is found by Peck's Bradley. Although the goal of the trip is an interview with Princess Ann, it is clear that Bradley has fallen in love…
3. "Moment to Remember" (2004) When Su Jin (Son Ye-jin) slips away from rapid onset Alzheimer's disease, her husband Chul Soo (Jung Woo-sung) will stop at nothing to get her to remember him and their love story. This is a weepy worth two boxes of tissue, so be prepared.
4. "Breakfast at Tiffany's" (1961) Audrey Hepburn stars as Holly Golightly, a New York City socialite who falls in love with writer Paul "Fred" Varjak (George Peppard). Golightly's life is a shambled, confusing mess, making Varjak intrigued, and who can forget the kiss they shared at the end? Hepburn reminds us once again why she is one of Hollywood's pivotal leading ladies.
5. "Lady and the Tramp" (1955) Two dogs and a plateful of spaghetti--who can forget this wonderful Disney classic where rich dog Lady falls for wrong-side-of-the-tracks mutt Tramp? Who knew that it would take two dogs to show us what true love is.
6. "Princess Bride" (1987) Dashing Wesley (Cary Elwes) and Princess Buttercup (Robin Wright Penn) ward off fairy tale villains in this classic comedy about "wuv, true wuv." Who could not fall in love with Wesley as he rolled down the hill shouting, "As you wish…"
