Casablanca |
****--One of the classic romantic movies. |
Dracula |
****--the one directed by Coppola--this might seem weird, but seeing the love this vampire had for this woman was incredible, okay, so it's gory? All the more reason to go see it and hold each other during the scary parts. |

Romeo and Juliet |
****--either the Zeferilli or the most recent version, I adore them both, and it's a classic. |
Shakespeare In Love |
****--The take of Will Shakespeare in 1590 England, struggling to write a play and find love. But once he does the sparks fly as he finds more than he bargains for in writing Romeo and Juliet. It is a feat of wonder that such a simple idea could be done so well, but that's Shakespeare for you. |

Circle of Friends |
***--confusing in parts, but it's really cool when the handsome guy realizes he's in love with the regular girl--smart guy :) |
Forrest Gump |
***--it's so sad, but geez, you can't leave it off this list. |
Private Benjamin |
***--This is the movie to see when you've just broken up with someone--it'll show you there is life out there still, and it's funny. |
