Cringey I know but now and then DH and I have "date night" and watch a weepy romance together but it's been a while since we watched one that we can honestly say "WOW that was fab" P.s I love you is my fave, I love the message behind it and it really makes me appreciate what I have. Any good recommendations? Tia

The notebook sad

Yes to Breakfast At Tiffany's (although it changed the book a lot).

Dp and I both love Notting Hill.

Jane Austen films - Sense And Sensibility has Alan Rickman, which makes it almost perfect in my book!

The Wedding Singer for romantic comedy and great music.

Ah - missed the 'weepy' bit. How about An Officer And A Gentleman?

The 80s ones.

About Last Night is my all time fave.

I think I'm saving The Notebook for Valentines day, so many people are recommending it I can't believe I Havnt seen it yet!

Notting Hill is one of my all time favourites ,
Chalet Girl is a good one too ,
Water for elephants might be worth a watch .
I had a little weep in each of these.

I just picked up a DVD of Love Story in Asda for £3. It was my first romance film.

My other fav is Pretty Woman - mainly for the young RG and the gorgeous dresses!

How embarrassing! blush
