(8,644 posts)Casablanca is my top movie overall in any category. Film noir and sci-fi being my favorite categories, Blade Runner is way up there for me.
Out of Africa starring Meryl Street and Robert Redford is a great one for me.
Also
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
starring Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet.
I have to see that one again.
But I go back and watch Casablanca ever now and then.

(2,022 posts)But I cant be trusted because I think Sid and Nancy, about Sid Vicious of Sex Pistols fame, is a love story.

(8,836 posts)are some of those:
"Swept Away by an Unusual Destiny in the Blue Sea of August" from 1974. The original and not the awful remake. Lina Wertmuller directing Giancarlo Giannini again as she did so well in other movies as well.
Anything Bogart and Bacall.
"Marty" from 1955 with Ernest Borgnine. Love breaks through everything trying to hold it back.
"Frankie and Johnny" from 1991. Al Pacino and Michelle Pfeiffer.
I know this may sound silly but the old "Andy Hardy" movies always hit a note with me. Mainly because who doesn't like simpler times, likeable characters and happy endings?
