As Good As It Gets
Wish you all a romantic day.
Why these 20? Here are some reasons and comments...
As Good As It Gets
- Powerful performances from Jack Nicholson and Helen Hunt
- An unusual story of love and care when Helen plays the caring single waitress, meanwhile Jack plays an author with OCD and other intolerable behaviour
- Won Best Actor and Best Actress at 1997 Oscars
Sleepless in Seattle
- Well-written screenplay that builds up the curiosity as to what will happen to the sleepless Tom Hanks
- Throughout the story, characters played by Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan have not met each other at all until the end
- Memorable last scene
- With reference to another movie classic by Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr in An Affair to Remember (1957)
Casablanca
- Humphrey Bogart's portrayal as Rick defines the very gentlemen, especially in times of war and hardship
- Memorable quotes such as "Play it again, Sam!"
- Won Best Picture, Best Director and Best Screenplay at 1944 Oscars
West Side Story
- Modern version of Romeo and Juliet, but with great singing and compelling dance performances
- Natalie Wood was once the babe of Hollywood and legendary star of all time
- Won 10 Oscars including Best Picture in 1962
Lost In Translation
- Bill Murray delivered a performance of his life time with the company of Scarlett Johansson
- Two lonely souls lingering in the streets of Tokyo, a foreign land where the lack of translation allows a closer connection and care within those who understand one another
- Sofia Coppola's sensational direction for the film turned it into an instant love classic
Beauty and the Beast
- The only animated film ever to be nominated for Oscar Best Picture before the 10 Best Picture rule revived few years ago
- A romantic story of the redemption of an ugly soul with the help of love and beauty
Annie Hall
- The master of romance, Woody Allen, brings you into what true love is when it deeply connects with human thoughts and behaviour
- Crowded with hilarious and humorous dialogue, Diane Keaton won her Oscar Best Actress in this film, while it is the only Best Actor nomination ever for Woody Allen
- Best Picture of 1977, as well as Best Director for Woody Allen
In the Mood for Love
- A Hong Kong love story set in 1962
- Beautiful cinematography and costumes, with a unique original score
The Artist
- Action speaks louder than words, this silent black and white romantic comedy depicts the golden ages of silent films, but later overtaken by sound and eventually the collapse of silent stars
- Passionate performance from Jean Dujardin earned him an Oscar for Best Actor
- Best Picture of 2011, as well as Best Director and notably Best Original Score which played a huge part to this silent film
Silver Linings Playbook
- 4 words to summarise: Jennifer Lawrence is amazing (Best Actress of 2012)
