Breaking Dawn
Kait: Before you roll your eyes and exclaim that a Twilight movie doesn’t belong on the “romantic” list, just hear me out: After a lengthy waiting period, Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Edward (Robert Pattinson) finally tie the knot and do the nasty. And with Edward, it really is nasty—we’re talking shredded pillows, headboard broken into pieces, the whole nine yards. Plus, did you hear Edward’s vows? “No measure of time with you will be long enough. But we'll start with forever.” That’s definitely romantic (in a creepy, I’m-going-to-turn-you-into-an-immortal-blood-sucking-vampire kind of way).
Midnight In Paris
Melodie: The first 10 minutes of this fabulous film romps through the magnificent scenery of Paris from dawn to dusk, getting you in the mood for romance with the score of lovely background music. The plot is intriguing and sophisticated; the perfect Woody Allen movie (partly because he's not actually in it)! Owen Wilson is the star that Woody always wanted to be: sensitive, intelligent, good-looking. Co-star Rachel McAdams is stunning as usual. The film is full of surprises and love lessons. It ranks as the best movie of the year in my book!
Water For Elephants
Kait: Any tale of forbidden love is appealing. Throw in Robert Pattinson's smoldering gaze and a loveable (albeit stubborn) circus elephant? We’re sold. Set during the Great Depression, the film tells the tale of veterinary student Jacob (Pattinson) as he joins a traveling circus to tend for the animals, including Rosie, the difficult but talented elephant. He soon falls for performer and horse trainer Marlena (Reese Witherspoon). The catch? She’s married to the violent, possessive and unstable boss. Add in some heartbreaking narration from an older Jacob and you’ve got all the ingredients necessary for a heartwarming love story.
50/50
Kait: I know what you're thinking. A movie about cancer is romantic? At first glance, no, it's not. But aside from our protagonist Adam's (played by the beautiful Joseph Gordon-Levitt) struggle with accepting ”and overcoming”his diagnosis, there is also his struggle with balancing, discovering and pursuing a romantic interest while fighting cancer. You fall in love with the character, and then watch him try to fall in love again. Win! 50/50: Getting Cheated On While Ill With Cancer Sounds Awful
