    Atonement...because they both die at the end! Muahahahahaha!

    Sadly, that's not too far from the truth. I also love West Side Story, Shakespeare in Love, and Moulin Rouge. My absolute favorite is Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. LOVE it.

    Love Actually for sure. But I haven't seen too many of the ones everyone's mentioned, so mine isn't a well-informed opinion.

    I love Pride & Prejudice (the one with Colin Firth, of course!) and Love Actually.  I also love Keeping the Faith, which is more of buddy movie and a love story mixed together.

    Speaking of Netflix, I just watched a movie on the Instant View feature (finally something useful FI's xbox 360 does) called "Lost in Austin" it's a cheesy storyline of modern girl gets sent back in time to the story of Pride and Prejudice, but I actually enjoyed it! I sat intrigued through all 3 hours.

    @blondiebee: I had a feeling you'd choose the notebook! SO good! I love that movie...but when I thought about it, mine is probably "Where the heart is"

    A lot of people may remember the movie as The WalMart baby! I loves it! It's not really a "looooovveee" story, but it's so inspirational. LOVE it!

    Ohh, I forgot about the classics! D'oh! I love the Philadelphia Story and My Fair Lady as well, and all of the Thin Man movies. Not traditional "love" stories, but I think Nick and Nora Charles are one of the best screen couples ever - FH and I strive to be like them (sans about half the amount of drinking!) ;-)

    A few of my girls STILL pick on me because when we went to see The Notebook, I didn't cry.  I'm generally not prone to tearing up @ films.  I think the only films that have "gotten me" are Love Story, Terms of Endearment, and Lassie (granted I was like 3yrs old, but maaaaaaaan did I get hysterical).

    Umbrellas of Cherbourg and Me And You and Everyone We Know.

     

    There was also this totally depressing old movie I saw on AMC one night: lovable 50s housewife gets cancer, tells no one, finds out her husband is cheating on her, loves him anyway, tells the mistress about her cancer and how she needs to take care of her daughter, goes on one last lovey dovey trip with her husband and dies there. OMG. Heartbreaking. I always have a thing for those martyr types I guess, like Melanie in Gone with the Wind. Ugh.

    "Stranger Then Fiction" with Maggie Gylenhal and Will Farrell.  It is a BEAUTIFUL movie about unlikely love and finding meaning in life.  By far my favorite movie (and love story) of all time!

    i don't really like many love stories... But I will say if i had to pick from the list above, Moulin Rouge.  I think Nicole Kidman's a bit of an ice princess, but who doesn't like Ewan McGregor?

    I always enjoy Love Story and Casablanca, and Guess Who's Coming to Dinner. Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy are awesome together on screen.

    For me it's Roman Holiday, My Fair Lady and a french film called Love Me If You Dare. If you haven't seen the french one and like the Notebook, I HIGHLY recommend it!

    I like the Katharine Hepburn/Spencer Tracy movies best, too! Love, love, LOVE Pat & Mike and Desk Set. For recent films, I'd say WALL-E! Also, my absolute favorite movie in this genre has to be ONE FINE DAY! OMG, George Clooney and Michelle Pfeiffer! So cute, hilarious, and not mushy at all. GO WATCH IT NOW!
