    "Of Human Bondage" is one of my favorite romantic movies, because the love the main character feels for the woman who everyone else uses and tosses aside. He sees only good in her until the last part of the movie, when he finally realizes true love can be given AND received. Sad movie but a definite favorite. Another one is, "Casablanca."

    There is just something about him, I've loved him since he was on 21 Jump Street a million years ago. He has been my celebrity crush since I was kid I just think he's the best.

    Johnny Depp is not only dead sexy! But he is totally one of the greatset actors ever! He can make himself into any character for any role. He's got an acting quality that makes the movie jump out at you and feel the emotions of the movie. Such amazing qualities have been found in Marlon Brando. Both are sexy! (Marlon was sexy when he was younger;))

    A few of my favorite romance movies...

    1. Sleepless in Seattle--more of a romantic comedy, but still great!
    2. Boys on the Side--another type of romantic comedy, but gets me crying every time!
    3. Autumn in New York--LOVED Winona Ryder in this!
    4. Bed of Roses--sweet, sweet movie and Christian Slater is a plus! :)

    There's so many more, but I can't think of them right now!

    Oh and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind always makes me cry!! You'll love it if you like dramas and plot twists

    Serendipity. How can no one have mentioned it yet? That's the best chick flick ever! And something for the boys, to... a little bit of Kate Beckinsale. Yeah, she was cool in Van Helsing and the Underworld movies. She also played a cute little british girl in love.

    And Glinda's awesome suggestion, the Pricess Bride. Hellz yeah.

    Too few people perceive this one as romantic. I think they need to grow older and be with someone for awhile.

    An aging couple Ethel and Norman Thayer ("Ethel Thayer, I almost didn't marry you cause it sounded like a lisp."), who spend each summer at their home on Golden Pond. They are visited by daughter Chelsea with her fiancé, where they drop off his rebelious son. The story explores the relationship, among other things the relationship that she had with her father growing up, as well as what can happen to a couple in the later years of a long marriage. Along the way, was a touching bond between the young boy and the old man.

    Get this movie, don't rent it, and watch it, and then watch it again...
