Romantic Movie Lists
Tear Jerkers And More...

Got a free evening and can't figure out what to do?

Then...

...Romantic movie lists are just the things to check out.

And sharing the experience with someone special makes a whole lot of difference.

Watching a movie together, especially if it's a romantic movie, de-stresses you.

When love is all around you, you can't help but fall in love all over again. So, get a pen and start making your own romantic movie lists.

When you get down to the actual task of choosing the best romantic movie, lists begin to get really long.

There are so many good movies, and just one evening or perhaps a weekend to spend.

So...

How do you go about organizing perfect romantic movie lists?

Romance movie lists: tips to making a great list

First of all, find out what kind of movie your partner loves.

If he can't stand weepy dramas, it wouldn't do to subject him to a 'Casablanca' or a 'Gone With The Wind'.

However famous these movies are, your love will be nodding in his sleep when Rhett Butler gets passionate with Scarlett.

You DON'T want your romantic movie to be a lullaby.

If he loves comedies, go for romantic comedies. Laughter always puts you in a great mood, and shared smiles go a long way to strengthening your relationship.

Select movies that have a reputation.

Movies that have been all-time favorites are sure to please your love.

These have run the test of time.

When compiling a list of romantic movies, include at least one such time-tested movie.

...These are all romantic movies that really pull at the heart.

Girls vs. boys: making romance movie lists

It's a common mistake we all make. When making romantic movie lists, we tend to put in those movies that we like.

We assume that since we find it so entertaining and romantic, our partner too will agree with us.

But...

Common experience bears out the fact that men and women do not always agree on what is romantic.

While my wife finds 'Beauty and The Beast' incredibly romantic, I just have a supercilious smile for the 'kiddo' animation movie I am entranced by.

Women love romances that have lots of emotion, while most men prefer romances that have more action.

No wonder most guys love 'Armageddon'.

...And then there is the sexual angel: men love to watch movies that have at least a few steamy scenes. It really turns them on and puts them in high gear.

So...

Consider some of these basic differences before making your own romantic movie lists.

Young Vs. Old: compiling romantic movie lists

When you are young, your hormones are all over the place. More action and less thought - that's what everything in life is about - even romance (especially romance).

But...

As one begins to ripen with maturity, the focus starts shifting.

Romantic movie lists should always take your age and your needs into account.

Don't be too surprised if you feel that the philosophy in a movie like 'Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind' appeals more to you than the light-hearted fairy tale of 'The Princess Bride'.

...It's all in the age!

'To love and be loved' - what sentiment can be more appropriate than this when compiling romantic movie lists?

And...

Movies like the 'Moulin Rouge' and 'Say Anything' are really some of the most unabashedly romantic movies of all times.

You can watch one of these and look deep into your beloved's eyes and say, 'Come what may, I'll love you until my dying day'.
