Recommend a Classic Romance Movie -- Need Answer Sort of Fast

True (and it puts the movie firmly into the top tier of the “greatest final line” category, too.)

I still think My Man Godfrey has the better final line.

And run screaming from Love Affair with Warren Beatty and Annette Bening.

They’re both agreeably cynical. :wink:

Ann Sheridan, mmmmmmmmm! :o

I saw this flick on TCM and quite liked it. I love the theme music!

The movie is very well known in Russia (the title there is “In Jazz There Are Only Girls”). When it was first shown in the Khrushchev era, the last line brought the house down!

And I would add Desk Set with Tracy and Hepburn. Be sure to get a widescreen version of any film where it’s available. The looks you get from the fringe just make many a movie!

Hey, Biotop, what movies did you settle on, and did you manage to get them on time?

Another vote for this one. It’s one of my favorite romance/suspense movies. And just ironic/sarcastic enough to keep from being cheesy. “There’s nothing like a love song to give you a good laugh”.

I am an indecisive sort, so when I tried to whittle it down to five movies, I couldn’t. I ended up ordering these 8:

Sabrina
Roman Holiday
Holiday
An Affair to Remember
High Society
Ninotchka
Bringing Up Baby
Waterloo Bridge

The package arrived Friday from Amazon.

I work in Customer Service in a grocery store. My wife works in the Floral department of a competitive grocery store. Our stores are located twenty miles apart so the competition isn’t really that much. In any case, my wife was scheduled to work today from 6am until 1pm getting flowers out to the masses for the holiday. I was supposed to work 2:30 to 11 at my store. That left a window of about 20 minutes where my wife and I would be home together. We would open Valentine’s Day presents when she got home, and then I would go to work.

But then the wild card: Snow in the forecast.

I got a call from work about 10 this morning asking me to come in early because the forecast for 4 to 7 inches of snow and ice had turned the normally rational people of our area into Grocery Store Madness fiends. So I went into work early and there went the window. I managed to lay out the present and chocolates I bought on the counter so my wife would find them when she got home this afternoon.

No problem, I would be home by 11:45pm, we would have quick present opening and then tomorrow we could be snowed in together with old romantic movies to watch.

Well it wasn’t supposed to start snowing until midnight, but the flakes began falling about 8pm. By 11 the roads were snowy and I had to decide whether to sleep at the store or to try to drive in the snow home. I have totaled a car once in the snow, and I hate driving in the stuff… but I decided to try and get home. We live outside Charlottesville up in the hills. The roads were bad. I ended up leaving my car about two miles from the house and walking home in the snow and eighteen degree temperature. I got home about 1am and my wife had already gone to sleep.

The present remains unopened on the counter, though some chocolates were eaten. I guess I will see if she likes the movies tomorrow.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions!
