A Summer Place - melodramatic pulpy romance

Rocky - its a sweet love story

Rebel Without a Cause - tender teen yearning romance

The Earrings of Madame de…

Woman in the Dunes - trapped captive romance

The Hunger - the vamps do love each other and keep their exes around.....for eternity.

La Dolce Vita - Anouk Aimée and Marcello Mastroianni whispering sweet nothings in the Palazzo Pallavicini-Rospigliosi is one of the chicest romantic scenes in cinema.

Fire Island. Straight Roman is boring because those bitches have everything already.

Fire Island made me roll my eyes that this Jane Austin relationship could happen but I found myself wishing it could be true. I don’t care, I love seeing gay movies with happy endings. This one leaves me hopeful and happy, till I remember I’m single and likely to die alone.

"The Way We Were"

It was heartbreaking. Misty eyes during that final scene.

See ya Katie.

See ya Hubbell.

Certainly my favorite romantic film of the nineties.

Pam Grier and Robert Forster made a superb pairing. Two worn-out, down-on-their-luck characters past their primes but still full of feeling and life.

Unconsummated and with a twinge of regret, the romance ends with the film, but the longing lingers almost thirty years later.

“The Enchanted Cottage”.

by Anonymousreply 26September 26, 2025 11:17 PM

Beautifully shot romance set in the Hebrides.

Visiting Wendy Hiller thinks she knows where she’s going, but the locals know better, and the audience hopes they’re right.

It’s a wonderful film, atmospheric, comedic, and wildly romantic.

R23 That’s an interesting pick. The film has so many other elements and is foremost a crime thriller I can’t say it’s a very romantic film. But the romance between Grier and Forster is done very well. A lesser film would have made it over the top and rushed things. Tarantino is brilliant.

Dual romances with lots of dueling, but combat isn’t the main threat to all the four lovers: it’s societal and familial expectations and constraints that keep them apart.

A truly heartbreaking death scene in the end tears open a lifetime of unfulfilled promise and lays bare the raw regret of self-denial.

Michelle Yeoh’s soulful performance has always been the heart of the film for me. I could watch the film another dozen times.

The 2013 Argentine gay romance drama "Hawaii" directed by Marco Berger.

Personally, I consider it the best Spanish-language gay romance film of all time.

I agree with Casablanca, because the romance between Rick and Ilsa is engrossing (and the one between Viktor and Ilsa is charming too), but the War stuff is also very romantic. Little people fighting against an implacably evil foe, the jaded cynic turning hero and surrendering his true love for The Cause, and all that. The "Marseillaise" scene. Sigh.
