The Most Romantic Films

Posted at 7:28 AM on February 14, 2007 by Stephanie Curtis

I'll be on KARE 11 this morning talking about my favorite romantic movies of all time. Here they are:

It Happened One Night - The perfect romantic piece of fluff. Perfect, smart fluff. Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert squabble, fall in love and then take a few minutes to admit that they've fallen in love. If only love were so simple...

Now, Voyager - But Bette Davis knows the path to love is not simple. You need a psychiatrist to help you escape the misery and insecurities inflicted on you by your parents first. But then, you can find love...for a little while at least.

The Shop Around the Corner - Jimmy Stewart and Margaret Sullavan nearly miss out on love during hard economic times in a Hungarian gift shop. Dear friend, the movie is sincerely moving, funny and dizzyingly romantic.

Annie Hall - A great love, even if it doesn't last. Alvy and Annie could've made it work, but even though they don't , we still have lobsters, Marshall McLuhan and that terrifying trip back to Wisconsin for the holidays.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - Are we doomed to repeat our same romantic mistakes over and over?
