Alright, the title pretty much sums it up. Whats the best movie to watch on Valentine’s Day? It has to be romantic, but not a chick-flick. And it should fill the viewer up with happy/loving emotions.
Mine would be Scruples
Declan
Sid & Nancy
Okay, just kidding.
How about True Romance, A Walk In The Clouds, What Dreams May Come, Can’t Buy Me Love, Officer And A Gentleman, or Dirty Dancing?
Amelie
Yeah, her head will be on your shoulder when Alabama and Virgil meet at the hotel.
Enchanted April is great for filling the viewer with happy/loving emotions.
Lost in Translation?
Roxanne?
The Truth About Cats and Dogs?
Casablanca?
just brainstorming
Brian
Say Anything.
Best. date. movie. ever.
Double Feature: In The Company Of Men and Dead Ringers
Sorry - I’ve seen this question posted many times on various message boards over the years, and it’s become something of a tradition for me to make suggestions out of sheer perversity whenever I have the opportunity.
My work here is done.
Roman Holiday
Like Water for Chocolate, hands-down. Of course, I don’t know what your non-chick flick criteria are, but my then-BF had no complaints.
Second choice: The Unbearable Lightness of Being.
First thing I thought of is Some Like it Hot, which starts off with a reference to the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre.
Lost In Translation. So utterly romantic and beautiful that it can drive a cynical male teenager like me to tears.
Buffalo '66
Duh!!!
CHOCOLAT???
:smack:
Before Sunrise!
Truly romantic IMHO
I have to say, that’s a damned good choice. Takes place in France and everything. (-:
Perhaps other movies that take place in France would be natural choices…
French Kiss?
Sabrina (another love story, 15 minutes takes place in Gay Pari)?
- Freewill39.
Always, with Richard Dreyfus. Very touching.
Well, the best movie going experience I had on feb 14th was seeing The Gift but…single and slightly bitter made it a great choice. Not romantic, however.
How about ** If Lucy Fell** Romance, suicide pact, the best point ever made with a phone ever…something for everyone
I really think Hope Floats and The Goodbye Girl (new or old versions)
Kudos for thinking so far ahead.
