Can’t say I fully agree with their list (Up should be much higher for one thing – Up is my number one…). However, Brief Encounter is definitely a good one. And Harold And Maude is a favorite movie of mine but not one that pops into my mind when I think of “romance”. I’ve not seen numbers 3, 4 & 8. Hmm…
Their top ten:
10. Punch-Drunk Love
9. Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind
8. A Matter Of Life And Death
7. The Apartment
6. Brokeback Mountain
5. Harold And Maude
4. Annie Hall
3. In The Mood For Love
2. Casablanca
1. Brief Encounter

I do recommend Brief Encounter – I loved it. Lots of great sexual tension! My review: Brief Encounter
According to this list, I have a lot of catching up to do..as in the Top 10, I’ve only watched 9 and 10..haha. And I found Punch Drunk Love peculiar in a good way 🙂
Oh wow! I think a lot of people would tell you that you need to see Casablanca. 🙂 To be honest, I was SO young when I saw that that I don’t remember it well – should really re-watch! I highly recommend Brief Encounter and The Apartment. Brokeback Mountain is also very good. And Harold And Maude as just a great quirky movie – I love that one. 🙂
I haven’t seen most of these. More to add to the list. I’d have to put Moulin Rouge right up there for me.
I’d have to say I preferred Romeo + Juliet but I have a strange little thing for John Leguizamo. Are you looking forward to The Great Gatsby?
John Leguizamo is underrated. He’s had some great parts! I cannot wait for The Great Gatsby. They’ve already started torturing with trailers!
My hubby isn’t bothered about The Great Gatsby so it looks like one I may have to go to by myself.
I love John Leguizamo’s cheeky smile. 🙂
Before Sunset would’ve been higher on my list, but still good to see it as high as it is on the list.
I love Before Sunrise & Before Sunset! 🙂 I did a list of my top five movies about love for Valentine’s Day & those were on there. Great movies. And they had such good chemistry. And there’s another one coming! 🙂
I saw A Matter Of Life And Death recently and it’s a great film. Before I met my husband, I’d only really seen films like Clueless, Muriel’s Wedding and Grease, and he has shown me so many films I would never have chosen for myself, like A Matter Of Life And Death 🙂
I’d never heard of that one so had looked it up when I read this article. It does sound interesting! It’s been added to my extremely long “to watch” list. 🙂 I do love Muriel’s Wedding! Good film. And Clueless was a lot of fun – love Paul Rudd.
I hope you enjoy it. It’s such an easy to watch film. Paul Rudd is so young in Clueless. I love him in 200 Cigarettes too, but again he was really young in that, aw! 😀
He was and still is a cutie 😉
