OK, list your favorite romantic movie.

Mine is Somewhere in Time, with Christopher Reeves and Jayne Seymour. I'm actually not all that into romantic movies. But this is one I'll never tire of watching over and over.


edited to say...ACK!! I mispelled romantic in the title (fingers got away from me ). Could I please trouble a mod to fix it for me?

Fixed title for ya. Happy Valentines Day! (c)

Some folks may not consider this a true romantic movie, but I really like Peggy Sue Got Married (1986) with Kathleen Turner and Nicolas Cage. The film's tagline is, "Knowing what you know now, what would you do differently?"

I also like Falling in Love (1984) with Meryl Streep and Robert De Niro. It's along the lines of Unfaithful in the sense that two strangers cross paths/start an affair, but with a very different ending.

Definitely An Officer And A Gentleman - I cry everytime at the end, when Richard Gere comes to Debra Winger's job and literally sweeps her off her feet!!

Oh Spy, I forgot about Pure Country!! I am in love with George. Go to every concert any where around and even have the PJ's that have George's name in a heart on them!!

Thanks for fixing the title! Arg! I just hate when I see a glaring mistake I made, and I can't fix it!

I'm loving and remembering many of the movies mentioned. I don't see anyone responding to Somewhere in Time. I think it's kind of a "sleeper" movie. Have any of you seen it? It's just wonderful!

Here's a link to some plot summaries on the IMDB.

Somewhere In Time

Whoami I loved the movie Somewhere in Time, I've seen it several times and I consider it one of the best tearjerkers of all time, the music and the story are just beautiful!

Granny, I've watched that movie a ton of times. Worst acting in the history of movie making, but the best love story ever :)

Who, I'm a Somewhere In Time fan myself. It is one of the best love storys and beautiful movies on film. I've watched that movie more than any other with Casablanca probably # 2.

I'm glad to see more Somewhere In Time fans checking in!

For those of you who have never seen it. Take my/our word for it. It's a must. I even bought the video!

I'll keep an eye out at the rental place for Somewhere in Time - it seems right up my alley. Amazon says it's out on DVD too. I love movies with "time travel."

Whoami.. I'm one of those who has the tv on even at times when I'm not really paying attention (while I'm cooking, paying bills, etc....) so sometimes I've "seen" something without really seeing it! I went to IMDB to look up Somewhere in Time and realized I have already "sort of" seen it... but now I want to watch it again and pay attention this time!

I'm with Fluffybbw on Crossing Delancey... that is one of my all-time favorites!

Another sweet romance is The Princess Bride.

My favorite oldies are The African Queen and It Happened One Night.

Gee, all the ones you have mentioned are all wonderful...But because 2 of the top 3 of my favorite movies are romantic movies I'll go with them... Enchanted Cottage and Wuthering Heights (orginal version)

One of my favorite romantic movies is The Philadelphia Story. Cary Grant and Jimmy Stewart. Though if I was Katherine Hepburn I would have gone with Jimmy.

I am also a big fan of Casablanca. Bittersweet romanace I know, but Bogey was great.

I like Princess Bride too. That is one of my all time favorite must see movies.

In addition to a number of movies already mentioned by others - I loved "Return to Me" and not just because of David Duchovny. = ) Definitely a two hankey chick flick. So sweet.

Mine is without a doubt...."Same Time, Next Year". It gives you lots to think about, it's very funny in parts, and it makes me cry me eyes out.

Somewhere in Time was filmed on Michigan's Mackinaw Island using the Grand Hotel. Someday I hope to visit.

"Same Time Next Year" was indeed a lovely movie.

I agree with a lot of those that have already been mentioned. I'd also add Bridget Jones's Diary. Great Pride and Prejudice inspired love story. I love the last scene (in the snow) especially. Plus it's just a cute and funny movie in general. :)

Same Time Next Year was just on yesterday. I loved "A Walk In The Clouds", "Always" and (somewhat controversial choice) "Joe Vs. The Volcano".

I love romantic movies, whether they be comedies or dramas.

Loved pretty much every movie mentioned so far but have never seen "Pure Country".

Wcv63 I really like "Joe vs. the Volcano" I especially enjoy the shopping trip, he makes that luggage salesman so happy! And those cases really come in handy!
