I’m in the mood for some true romance. Can anyone suggest something good? The ones I can think of off the top of my head are:

The Notebook
Cinema Paradiso
Atonement
Wuthering Heights (Ralph Fiennes)
Gone With The Wind
Dracula

Honourable mention to Amelie 💜

Probably not everyone’s cupping tea but I loved The Secretary.

I'm sorry to be basic but dirty dancing, and you've got mail. That last seen in YGM has me tearing up just thinking about it.

Not a film but the dramatisation of North and South with Richard Armitage

Epic.

I thought Lady Chatterly’s lover was really nice. I also like Pride and Prejudice.

Moonstruck

I bloody love Moonstruck. The scene at The Met, when their eyes meet … Magical. Cher is phenomenal in this.

Bridges of Madison County.

@ohyesidooooh how? I’ve never thought of it that way and I’d love to know?☺️

It’s a bit of a toxic relationship between Allie and Noah, him making her agree to go out with him while she’s on a date with another man, and the violence from her towards him….

Roman Holiday - just lovely

I have just downloaded the Bridges of Madison county and am going to watch it now. Thanks for this thread x

Paterson. Not your standard 'romance' but the quiet, humble, deep love in this movie is second to none 😍

@kerstinafunnily enough I read The Thorn Birds two weeks ago for the first time ever, can’t find the show anywhere to watch though Sad

Have you tried you tube sometimes they put them on there otherwise I have a dvd floating around somewhere if I can find it I could send it you. It was brilliant when I watched it as a young girl. I guess you are too young to have seen it first time around!

It really is incredible - great chemistry. And young Nicolas Cage, just wow!

No one’s mentioned Titanic! 😱

Christwosheds · 19/08/2025 19:25

Pp suggested Tess of the D’Urbervilles. It’s traumatic and heartbreaking rather than romantic.

IdaGlossop · 19/08/2025 19:27

It is but there is real love between Angel and Tess. The actress playing the part was so beautiful but I liked the Angel in the mini series . I have forgotten his name 😳

I have to second Out of Africa and I’m sure for the rest of today the theme song will
be playing on endless loop in my mind. Gorgeous scenery gorgeous fashions Meryl and Robert.
