If you always wanted your life to resemble some film this Valentines Day you could think the same for two! The rigmarole of DVD movie marathon only gets better with Valentines around the corner. So pop some corn and get some cola and let some evergreen romance flicks help you snuggle up with the significant other.
When Harry Met Sally
This is a movie about two people who try to be friends, and only friends. It is a story of platonic friendship, and whether or not it really exists. The stars are Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan. The film is humorous, and complete with fake orgasms, and funny fight scenes. It is a great Valentine's Day movie for couples.
Lady and the Tramp
This classic Disney movie appeals to children and adults alike. Lady, a Cocker Spaniel, has a happy home with Jim Dear and Darling until her home life is disrupted by the arrival of a new baby. When the couple go away on vacation, lady ends up running away and meeting Tramp, a stray mutt. When Jim Dear and Darling return and find that Lady and the Tramp have saved the baby from a rat that entered the crib; they end up adopting Tramp. This story is a great choice to watch as family on Valentine's Day. It is a story about romantic love as well as the love of family.
Annie Hall
In case unfulfilled love isn't on the agenda then Woody Allen's Annie Hall with its tale of two people so made for each but just not meant for each other would surely make you cherish every moment spent together. Spelling hope for all those who haven't found the 'one', The Bridges of Madison County, is an ode to a lifelong romance spawn from a few days of togetherness. Middle aged Clint Eastwood and Meryl Streep meet, fall in love but she won't leave her husband and children and he respects her too much to convince her otherwise.
Dirty Dancing
Forbidden love, lots of dancing with even more dirty dancing, and Patrick Swayze in some really tight pants! What else do you need? Frances 'Baby' Houseman and Johnny Castle fall in love even though they know they shouldn't, but what they really get down to is a lot of bumpin' and groovin'. This movie is perfect for the couples who love that old school music with romance thrown in.
Barefoot in the Park
If the subject is love then can Robert Redford, one of the greatest lover boys of movies be wandering elsewhere? Absolutely not! Watch him in Barefoot in the Park keeping pace as the hapless husband to a zany Jane Fonda, you'd realize why your mom and her mom were nuts about Redford! Barbara Streisand and Redford's unrequited love in The Way We Were and his special romance with Meryl Streep in Out of Africa would surely sum up the night unlike ever before.
Just be careful don't get too involved in the 'reel' love lest you miss out on 'real' love!
