Looking for a similar moving to pride and prejudice or the notebook. Something that isn't a comedy or cheesy. Where it's not easy love, but a good ending. I need a good cry!

I watched seeking a friend for the end of the world last night and I was blown away. One of the most oddly romantic films I've watched. I was sat open mouthed after it, I loved it

Streisand and Redford in The Way We Were. Very sad ending and you get Redford in a naval uniform, which is a wonderful thing.

The Young Victoria

The Lunchbox - it is Hindi language, but one of my favourite films.

ObiWanKanobi · 18/04/2023 04:11

Green Card. Gerard Depardieu and Andi McDowell. Loved it.
Truly, Madly, Deeply is the ultimate weepie.

Green Card is adorable, though these days I’m keener on Bronte’s gorgeous garden than Gérard Depardieu.

Portrait of a Lady on Fire, agreed @colouringindoors — I only saw it recently.

Une Liaison Pornographique — which should be far better known as it’s insanely romantic. Sergi Lopez and Nathalie Baye play middle aged people who post/reply to an ad for someone interested in a particular type of sexual activity (never specified) and meet for sex at a hotel regularly (we don’t go inside the hotel room), and gradually fall in love.

Also agree about the Persuasion with Amanda Root and Ciarán Hinds — not the recent horror with Dakota Fanning, where Wentworth is weeping by the ends of the opening credits.

@JemimaTab — had forgotten The Lunchbox! It’s lovely!.

Up in the Air, In the heights, Five feet apart

Just watched the Lucky One with Zac Efron - pretty good!

365 Days on Netflix. The guy is in love with the girl, so he kidnaps her and plans to keep her for a year until she falls in love with him. It’s not exactly a weepy movie but it’s worth a watch! (it makes 50 Shades look like a Disney movie)

JaneJeffer · 08/09/2023 22:07

27 Dresses

That doesn't sound very romantic Confused

Brief Encounter (1945). Absolutely brilliant. The dilemmas are very relatable and the characters are well rounded, don't be put off by it being an "old" film. The central story stands the test of time, unlike a lot of other films of the era which can be pleasantly nostalgic but less relatable.

Bridges over Madison County
In the Mood for Love
Lost in Translation

Lost in translation is the worst movie I have ever seen.

Honeyroar · 10/09/2023 22:38

Have you ever been to Japan Boobot1? I loved Lost in translation because it really reminded me of how I felt on layovers in Japan when I was crew. My boyfriend at the time, who I saw it with, hated it too.

Recently watched The Last Letter from your lover. Really enjoyed it. Definitely not a life of easy love but very satisfying ending.
