It once happened to me when I was single. After I got a girlfriend, It changed. It is my most cherished moment. It is quite interesting how things and humans can change your choice easily.

Ever After with Drew Barrymore as the lead actress. The movie has a Cinderella theme. It is ahead of its time when depicting feminism. The characters are well-rounded, all serving their purpose to move the storyline forward. The "villains" in the movie are also very human, not just for the sake of "villainy".

I love Titanic. I’ve watched it so many times I lost count. I actually went to school for a computer animation because I learned that the Titanic was only half made and the other half was 3-D. But I genuinely love a romantic movie.

PS I Love You, The Notebook, If Beale Street Could Talk are probably my favorite more serious romance movies.

27 Dresses is my favorite romcom along with How To Lose A Guy in 10 Days

Pride and Prejudice with Kiera Knightly will always be my favorite. I know it differs from the book some, but I'll always go back to that movie because it was beautifully done.

Some of my favorites in romance are "HER" (which is one of my favorites regardless of genre) and "500 days of Summer". Just do not watch them if you like only happy go lucky kind of romance movies.
