And again about love. A touching, romantic, all-encompassing and magical feeling on the screen - a man and a woman, passion and tenderness - is the quintessence of a film about love. There are many such paintings, but not everyone will find their viewer. And yet there are favorites and become the most popular.
Melodrama or "soap"?
In fact, a good melodrama is a beautiful film about the love and relationships of heroes, their characters, revealed in the course of the plot. Bad melodrama is a protracted plot, illiterate development and interaction of characters, a predictable end and outright emptiness, in other words, "soap".
Speaking of the best love stories in cinema that make you smile, cry, believe and tremble, one cannot fail to mention the film "If Only". Not too famous, but invariably catching every viewer, it is divided into 2 semantic parts. The first shows a typical day for an ordinary couple living in London and about to get married.
Samantha is a rather emotional American woman, somewhat naive, but insanely devoted. Ian is a conservative, lost in everyday life, career and himself. He forgets what is important to her, and throughout the day makes mistakes that lead to parting. In the evening of the same day, Samantha dies in a car accident. But Ian is given one more day … "If only there is a chance to relive it all …"
“In a relationship, there is always someone who loves more. I hope this someone is not me. " (from the movie "If Only")
No less dramatic and touching love story was the life of Noah and Ellie, shown in the film "The Diary of Memory". In a nursing home, one of the guests reads to a patient a novel about the relationship of a young and carefree aristocrat and a simple provincial guy who fall in love but break up at the end of summer. Everyone lives their own life. She is going to marry a military man. Having returned from the war, he embodies their dream - he is restoring an old mansion on the shore of the lake. By chance, they meet and stay together. But what happened next? And then … he is a resident of a nursing home, she is that patient who has lost her memory, who does not recognize them in the story from the diary. And from the window of the chamber - the lake, already familiar to the viewer, near the mansion.
“Read this to me. And I will come back to you. " (from the movie "The Diary of Memory")
Another interesting film character is Prince Albansky, whom the movie "Kate and Leo" offers to meet. Having magically entered the future, Prince Leopold perfectly masters in modern New York, conquers and falls in love himself with the eccentric, tired, but spiritually refined advertising agent Kate. Curiosities, excitement and, of course, a prince on a white horse are successfully combined with a dinner on the roof of the house, a ring from an old cache and a soundtrack from Breakfast at Tiffany's.
By the way, "Breakfast at Tiffany's" is the most beautiful romantic film in terms of style and incomparable in terms of acting. But you can't talk about him. You need to watch it and create an atmosphere of love yourself.
The romantic film of all time is Pretty Woman. The American story of Cinderella has won recognition in the hearts of women almost all over the planet. The sensual tandem of R. Gere and D. Roberts amazes with its brightness and dissimilarity to everything seen before.
With friends or alone
For watching a company or alone, when you don't want to cry, but just right to dream, the Italian film "Forgive for Love" about the relationship of a matured schoolgirl and a somewhat infantile man is quite suitable. This is not a Lolita story. This is a love story.
The Russian film "Children under 16" will tell about young people and their values. Russian recklessness and youthful cynicism makes it clear "how it really happens."
Many more love films could be recommended. And "Letters to Juliet" and "One Day" … But you should feel and understand each one yourself.
