Top Romantic Love Scenes

September 30th 2008 04:15
animated movie camera film love-scenes


Romantic love scenes in movies, some might say they’re cliché, corny or just bad. I think though, without love and romance –corny or not– this world might just be a cold hard place…

Here are a few snippets that I feel capture those sexy and/or romantic moments of love. You may not agree with me but I’m sure you’ll enjoy watching it all the same. Get the popcorn and Choc-tops ready... In no particular order some top romantic love scenes:


top popular romantic love scenes


Romeo & Juliet (1996)
- The coy exchanges between Romeo and Juliet through the aquarium
- When he steals her away from the crowd and passionately kisses her
- The fluffy sheet scene…





An Affair to Remember (1957)




Love Actually (2003)




Pretty Woman (1990)
The kiss…because it was so *forbidden*




Rear Window (1954)




In the Mood for Love (2000)
I actually found the entire movie a romantic tragedy...
…and I‘m just absorbed by the love theme from it…




Monsoon Wedding (2001)
I love the pomp and pageantry, the vibrant colours and music of this film. This movie has several memorable scenes but my favourite is when the wedding planner (who’s secretly in love with the maid), secretly watches the maid trying on the bridal jewellery (at 1:25).




P.S I Love You (2007)
The I-can’t-sleep-without-you scene…




…and just for the heck of it – ‘cos the song appears to be stuck in my head… A *tragedy* I know...!

Music and Lyrics (2007)

p/s...I would’ve loved to put more on, but that would make this post way too long… Hope you enjoyed the session...

Just so long as the "you complete me" scene never appears in your list. That's just bad and all kinds of wrong!!

Some other good choices on your list though

Oh yeah, obviously people would know that the line is from Jerry Maguire........

Thanks for popping in, Peter


HaHarHaaa...it would be so wrong, Kylie!

That line might've been romantic at some point before that film spoiled/killed it

Loved your post!

I almost missed this one Lara,

I've always been a 'sucker' for romantic love, and very often it has 'done me wrong'

but some of those movies, YES PLEASE and I still live in hope.

Brilliant! Totally with you on the Love Actually. I think that's one of the best love films.

Quite a mix there Lara, but definitely some good ones. I must say that I like that one from Love Actually too. A very funny and lovely confession of unrequited love!

Lara,

Thanks for the *treats* and for reminding me how much I love this stuff... nothing like a good chick flick once in a while to help me back up on my feet when the going is tough.

Cheers

Lilla ...

Thanks for your kind comment, May. We definitely need chick flicks every now and again, for sure


You and most of us, katyzzz. It's good for the soul though...


I agree, Cass. 'Love Actually' was great in so many different ways.

Mmm...mmm, Raquelle. That was a beautiful film of enduring love...


Thanks, Michaelie -- that's me...the eclectic one Need my fix of classic, modern, chick flicks, foreign films -- to tales of espionage (but that's another post...) :- ))

Yea, I think that's my favourite part/story of the film too.


Glad you enjoyed the session, Lilla. Nothing like a good dose of chick flicks every now and then. Sure helps to make this world a *better* place

Just a thought, Lara, next up - most heartbreaking love scene from a movie.

Gone With The Wind - when Rhett Butler walks off into the darkness, leaving Scarlett O'Hara for good.

Sweeney Todd - as he gazes at the body beneath him when Mrs Lovett opens the door to the firechamber-thingy

The Lake House - when Sandra Bullock is at the architecture firm with her fiancee, planning a renovation of her home, and learns about Keanu Reeves on Valentine's Day (or was it New Year's Day)

Now I can't say much about the Lakehouse, because i watched it with a bunch of girlfriends and we were all to busy giving each other makeovers to pay too much attention...but i highly recommend you seek out the original korean movie "il mare" from which it was adapted from.....subtle, yes, memorable, definitely!

Thanks for the suggestion, Cass
