movies about dating

Great Movies About Women, Dating, and Relationships. I recently queried the readers of The Don Juan Newsletter for Great Movies that they have seen which they thought taught them a lot about women, dating, and relationships. This is what they had to say. Rent Swingers. It is good. Weed through the advice the different characters tell each other and ditch all the shallow shit (because it is transparent and untruthful, which women can tell), and focus on the great truth of the situation. Sweet. The ending is an amazingly great commentary on human interaction, imo. I'd nominate the movie Don Juan de Marco with Marlon Brando and (I think) Johnny Depp. It offers a very entertaining approach as to the things men need to learn in treating women. "You must learn to touch her the way her lingerie does." Robert Redford is the Hero (no surprise). When Kirsten Thomas-Scott's character calls him to make arrangements for his help, he rebuffs her. He does NOT need her. She was a lady that was used to getting her way and being a bully about it. He was not prepared to put up with any nonsense and this completely flummoxed her. The man later revealed his kindness and wisdom, but at a crucial moment, his love interest says, "I don't think Tom does anything he does not want to." He has established equality and respect and is someone worth admiring. This was a good man, not a "nice guy" and there is a difference. He also playfully teased her and NEVER put her on the pedestal that her lackeys at work did. Of course she fell for him. When it came time to get information from the little girl, or even to get the horse to come to him, he used patience, not force or desperation. When the young lady was petulant and insisting she not be included, he allowed her to live in her own miserable world while he got on with his business. It was not long before she figured out that sulking in a hotel room was not going to be as interesting as watching this "horse whisperer" work. If he had ordered her to come it would have been under duress, not appreciated and she would have resisted any conversation. Later he showed trust and insisted that she drive the truck. He put her in an environment where there was no chance of disaster, and she could try something new with minimal fear. She did as she was told and enjoyed herself thoroughly. Later he explained that he needed to know what happened the day of the accident, that it would help him help her horse. He pointed out that when she was able and ready to tell him, he wanted to listen. Much later she broke down and told him all. He did not demand answers, he requested and granted her the control of the how, and the when. His opinion and reassurances mattered much more when she knew the kind of man that he was, and she trusted him to mean what he said. Near the end of the film he asks her to trust her one more time. she ponders, and trusts. Why not?

He has EARNED her trust instead of selling it, or demanding it, or expecting it. We earn the trust of our male friends when we play sports or stick together, yet we try to "sell" women on who we are. You have to earn respect, admiration and trust through your behavior. You cannot talk your way into what you must behave your way into. How many times do you meet someone when you are already dating? Quite often because the stench of desperation is absent and nothing is pushed. it just happens. You CAN affect the same aura of confidence and calm even when you are single. I think there are lessons in here on how to do that. You can learn not to take any crap (not a pushover), still be kind, and be gentle in the way you treat others. You can earn their admiration. So go out and buy the $40 roses if you like. I think that cleaning up your personality, style and self-esteem might be a better idea in the short, and long run. In short, it was a well shot film with wonderful landscape in the background. If you like horses, it is also a plus. If you don't, watch it anyway and try and pick up on the helpful hints on how to manage people and their emotions. I think every aspiring Don Juan should see the movie Swingers. It's a realistic and funny look at the 90s (and 00s) dating scene and it can teach you a lot. Definitely a gem, and in my opinion should be part of every young man's education :) American Pie. First of all, just watching these guys will make you feel better. But the odd thing is, if you think for a minute you'll see it's not because they're goofballs, but b/c we have done the same things or felt the same way (more or less). If anything it can be a "what not to do movie." Two of my favorite movies about relationships are Swingers and Jerry Maguire, and the reason is that I think they really tackle relationships with a lot of truth, not Hollywood glamour. Plus, they're funny as all hell. I know I, and I think a lot of people, can relate to the male characters in both films. But, if you want a good movie to watch with the lady-friend, you cant go wrong with Philadelphia Story with Jimmy Stewart, Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn. It's a classic for a reason. And, of course, Casablanca. It's the best ever. I would like to suggest the movie Untamed Heart. This is what I see as an underrated movie. It's very good and it shows you that you should be willing to give up the things that mean the most to you, in this case the records. The guy in the movie is certainly no Don Juan but you can learn some things from him. One interesting thing I found about the movie is the part where he put the Christmas tree in the girl's room. I'm not suggesting that someone break into their girl's house and put up a real live Christmas tree, but be creative. Find out something the girl loves that seems far fetched and get it or do it for her. I think that the French Serano De Burgerac, starring Gerard Depardieu, (my spelling may be incorrect) would be excellent. It demonstrates, how appearance is far less significant then a man's ability to speak like a poet. It is tragic, but illuminating. Valmont by Milos Forman is excellent. My favorite, Dangerous Liaisons, goes in depth into gender psychology. Very realistic in the psychological sense. It also has the most beautiful love letter I've ever seen or read, that I stole several times, and used it successfully. Valmont is a type of 18th century Don Juan. Naturally he should be featured at the don Juan site. I think Pedro Almodavar's Kika, a film about a nymphomaniac whose father is a famous gynecologist is another good candidate. Also Motodor by Almodovar is stunning in the way it ties sexuality with the darker side of the human psyche. Indochine was a movie about the French in Vietnam, that compared a mother and a daughter, in contrast to one another, and their affair with a young French officer. That's about all I can think of right off hand. You've Got Mail seemed to me accurate. I'm sure you're familiar with Don Juan de Marco (I think that's the name of it) starring, among others, Marlon Brando. Even though the guy was certifiable he sure could charm women! His philosophy was well stated with a line that went something like: "A woman should be played like a fine instrument." It may have been "violin" instead but the point was clear, either way. It affected my whole outlook! Per your request, here they are (your suggestion about Groundhog Day was spot-on; I've always thought is was an excellently done movie with a great lesson!): You asked for good Movies in the last Newsletter, so I thought I could help a bit. But there is one little problem: I'm German, and I don't know the American titles of the movies. but I'll try to explain. The first movie I recommend is called: Bliss - Im Augenblick der Lust. I guess it would be called Bliss - Moment of Desire, in America. It's about a couple that has some sexual problems, and that's cuz she was raped by her father as a little child. So she and her husband went to a psycho therapist. (I guess that's how you call them.) After a while she goes to a special doctor, without her husband knowing it. But he works on a building that's being constructed and he sees her going to that doctor through a kinda telescope. He went to the doctor and grumbled (?) at him. But the doctor told him how he wanted to help his wife. He wanted the husband to learn "Karezza" (about the same as tantra) to bring her back the joy of sex. I hope that's enough information for you to find that movie somewhere. The next movie I could recommend is You've Got Mail. (I think that's how you Americans call it.) You should know it cuz it's pretty new. Another Movie (I know the American title on this one :-)) is Dream for an Insomniac. It's about a young miss that gets a crush on a guy that starts working in her uncle's coffee shop. She wants a little angel, and he has blue eyes and a cute face, so that's why she wants him. But unfortunately he already has a girlfriend. But in the end almost everybody is happy. And another movie. It's called "Gro�e Erwartungen" in Germany. So I guess you would call it Great Expectations. It features Ethan Hawke, Robert DeNiro and Gwynneth Pealthrow. The main story is that Ethan Hawke gets a crush on Gwynneth as a child, and she always takes a step aside when he wants to get closer to her. But she also show the signals that she wants him. But the "devil" inside her lets her being so mean to Ethan. It's hard to explain with my vocabulary, but it's a really good movie. Don Juan De Marco is also a great Love-Movie. But I guess you already have that one in your hall of fame ;) Well, you should know about that one. The next movie is called Message in a Bottle. I haven't seen it, but I guess it's pretty romantic. It features Kevin Costner. The one from "Postman" or "Robin Hood." You'll find it somewhere. It's only about half a year old in Germany. And last but not least, a movie called "Auf den ersten Blick" in Germany (At First Sight). It features Val Kilmer. I don't know how "She" is called. But that main story is that he is blind and she gets a crush on him and vice versa. After a while he gets operated in the eyes and he is able to see. But cuz he had never seen before, he is very irritated. But I guess she helps him with all those problems. I don't know how you would call it. We say "liebe auf den ersten blick" when we see somebody and know that's the one wwo we love. Maybe you call it "love since the first glance/gaze" or something like that. Hope you'll find it. 9 Best Movies About Online Dating (And What to Learn From Them) Like most people, I love movies. I have wonderful memories of seeing certain movies with my friends and family (“101 Dalmatians” for my first experience), and there are movies I’ll never get sick of (“Titanic,” for example). As Editor-in-Chief of DatingAdvice.com, online dating is also a big part of my life. Online dating is a big part of a lot of people’s lives as well, as 49 million have tried it. Combining my knowledge of movies and online dating, today I’m bringing you nine films — from rom-coms to thrillers to documentaries — that showcase both the good and bad of online dating, and that can teach us a thing or two about finding love on the web. 1. You’ve Got Mail. This is the quintessential online dating movie, and I remember going to see it with my dad and sister when I was a kid. Released in 1998, “You’ve Got Mail” is set in New York City during the days of AOL (oh, that dial-up tone). Kathleen (played by ‘90s darling Meg Ryan) and Joe (played by everyone’s favorite dad Tom Hanks) meet in an over-30 chat room and set some rules when they start messaging: they won’t reveal their real names (just Shopgirl and NY152) or anything about their jobs, hobbies, friends, or family. What they don’t know is Joe’s new bookstore franchise, Fox Books, is ruining business at Kathleen’s local bookstore, the Shop Around the Corner. It’s the classic tale of opposites attract and secret identities. It’s been over 20 years, so I think it’s OK to spoil the ending of this movie for those who haven’t seen it: Joe and Kathleen realize their feelings for each other, and the final scene shows them arranging a meeting with their online love interest at the park. Once they discover their identities, she says, “I wanted it to be you. I wanted it to be you so badly.” They kiss and live happily ever after with their giant laptops. Lesson: Be upfront about who you are and what you want. There’s no point in getting to know someone online and then starting to feel something for them if you’re not going to be completely honest from the get-go. 2. Must Love Dogs. “Must Love Dogs” is one of those comfort movies that I’ll watch with my mom and sister on rainy days, and it explores what online dating can be like for divorcees. It came out in 2005 and stars Diane Keaton as Sarah Nolan and John Cusack as Jake Anderson. They’re both recently divorced, and their friends and family are eager to help them find someone new. Sarah’s sister is so eager that she creates a profile on a dating site without Sarah knowing, using her high school graduation photo as her main profile pic (she’s now 40), calling her voluptuous (she’s not), and telling potential matches that they must love dogs (an extra point for having the name of the movie said in the movie). Sarah decides to give into her sister and try online dating — going on a ton of awful first dates, including an accidental one with her own father. It’s good to have people help with your profile, but avoid having someone take over the whole process. Take a lesson from what happened to Sarah in “Must Love Dogs.” Meanwhile, Jake’s friend shows him a printout of Sarah’s profile and tells him he’s already set up a date for the next day at the dog park. Sarah brings her brother’s dog, Mother Teresa, who she’s dog-sitting, and Jake brings his friend’s dog. They have some cute love/hate banter about Sarah’s profile where she indicates the man must love dogs, not must own a dog. There are some misunderstandings along the way, but it all ends well — with Sarah swimming across a lake to profess her feelings for Jake. 3. Because I Said So. Not only is this a great mother-daughter movie, but it’s also a great online dating movie — because it shows the chaos that can ensue if someone else tries to take control of your love life. “Because I Said So” delves into the relationship between Milly (Mandy Moore) and Daphne, her mother (Diane Keaton). Milly is the youngest of three sisters, and she’s also the worst at dating. It also doesn’t help that her mother is always interfering. This interference includes placing a personal ad on a dating site and screening all the men for her. If you have a controlling friend or family member, like Milly in “Because I Said So,” you’re probably better off leaving them out of your love life problems. After Daphne meets Jason, who she thinks is perfect for Milly, they coordinate a “chance meeting” at Milly’s work. Soon after, they’re dating. Milly also starts dating another man, Johnny, who her mother met but didn’t like. As you probably guessed it, Milly finds out about her mother’s meddling and Jason’s knowledge of it. Plus, Johnny finds out she’s been seeing someone else. They all become estranged, but eventually Milly and her mom reconcile, and she sees that Johnny is who she’s meant to be with. 4. Eurotrip. “Eurotrip” is one of the best teen movies of all time — not to mention it has one of the best songs to ever come out of a movie: “Scotty Doesn’t Know.” When Scotty’s girlfriend breaks up with him on graduation day, he gets drunk at a party to numb the pain. Before the party, though, Scotty is emailing with his German pen pal, Mieke, when his best friend, Cooper, tells him it’s weird that he talks to a foreign dude every day and that he’s probably a sexual predator. Later, in a drunken haze, Scotty replies to Mieke’s email, in which he said he’d like to arrange a meeting. Scotty calls him a “sick German freak” and tells him he never wants to talk to him again. What he doesn’t realize is Mieke is a common German girl’s name. It’s too late to apologize to Mieke because she’s blocked his email, so he travels to Europe with Cooper and the twins, Jenny and Jamie. International relationships happen all the time online, but you’ve got to really know the language so misunderstandings don’t ruin everything. From London to Paris to Amsterdam to Bratislava to Berlin and Rome, Scotty finally locates Mieke and explains everything. They have sex and promise to continue emailing, and then, on the first day of college, Scotty finds out Mieke applied to the same school to be with him. Lesson: Make sure you fully understand the language you’re supposedly studying and using to communicate with a pretty girl overseas. Don’t listen to the dumbass friend in your group (we all have one) about dating, and don’t send angry emails when you’re drunk. 5. Sex Drive. “Sex Drive” is a seriously underrated movie, in general, and it can teach us a lot about online dating, particularly in terms of honesty and safety. Ian, a recent high school grad, is pretending to be a stud online (when in reality, he’s shy, skinny, and a virgin) when he meets Ms. Tasty. They decide to get together in person, so Ian takes his brother’s beloved 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge, picks up his two best friends, Lance and Felicia, and makes the road trip from Chicago to Knoxville. Along the way, the car breaks down, they have to deal with a sarcastic Amish man (a hilarious Seth Green), Felicia loses a tooth, and they end up in jail. Once they finally make it to the motel where Ms. Tasty is waiting, they find out her plan all along was to steal the car and sell the parts for cash. The rest involves a gun and a taco costume (you just have to see it). But the bad guys get arrested, the good guys are still alive, and Ian and Felicia discover how they feel about each other. Lesson: Make sure the person you’re talking to online is who they say they are. Google them, run reverse image searches, and ask a lot of questions. 6. Napoleon Dynamite. “Napoleon Dynamite” is a 2004 classic, and while the main focus is on Napoleon, some of the best scenes and lines come from his older brother, Kip. He’s 32, he doesn’t have a job, and he spends all day online talking to “babes.” Kip has one special babe, though, and that’s LaFawnduh. When you meet someone online you really fall for and trust, and they feel the same way, take the leap. Go see them in person, and tell them how you feel. To make some money and visit her in Detroit (he’s in Preston, Idaho), Kip goes in on a get-rich-quick scheme with Uncle Rico. LaFawnduh ends up coming to Preston, and spending the next few days falling even more in love. At the end of the movie, they both get on a bus and head back to Michigan. During the credits, the movie shows Kip and LaFawnduh getting married and riding a “wild honeymoon stallion” across a field together. Lesson: If you meet someone online, have gotten to know them, and start to really like and trust them, don’t wait around — make it happen and meet in real life as soon as possible. 7. Catfish. Before “Catfish” the TV show, there was “Catfish” the documentary. This is the only movie on our list that is based on a true story. Nev is a photographer living in New York City, and one day he receives a painting of one of his photos from 8-year-old Abby, who’s somewhat of a child prodigy. They friend each other on Facebook, and Abby starts telling Nev about her life and family, including her mom, stepdad, and older half-sister named Megan. Nev and Megan start messaging each other, and Nev’s brother Ariel decides to document their online relationship as it progresses. The brothers soon discover holes in Megan’s story — such as the song covers she’d been sending Nev (implying that it’s her singing) were actually taken from YouTube. Nev and Ariel travel to Michigan to confront Megan, but it’s Angela who answers the door. Make sure you have real feelings for the person, not the idea of them. And, again, you can never ask enough getting-to-know-you questions. Turns out, Angela had about 15 fake profiles, including Megan and Abby’s, and she said her correspondence with Nev had reignited her passion for painting. There were other lies, but Nev forgives her and uses this as an opportunity to help other people going through similar situations. Today, Angela has a website to promote her paintings, and she and Nev are still Facebook friends. Lesson: Be careful about falling too easily and too quickly online, and don’t wait too long to connect with an online match in person. 8. Hard Candy. “Hard Candy” is probably the most disturbing movie on this list, and it flips the typical girl-meets-predator-online story on its head. Hayley, 14, and Jeff, 32, are having a very sexual conversation online and agree to meet up at a coffeehouse. They go back to Jeff’s house, where Hayley puts something in his drink to make him pass out. Never invite someone to your house or meet at theirs for the first meeting, especially if you’re a murderer and she’s out for justice. When he wakes up, he’s tied to a chair, and she admits that she’s been watching him and knows he had a part in the rape and murder of a local girl who’d gone missing. As Hayley threatens him with a gun, a stun gun, castration, and a noose, Jeff continues to deny any involvement. It all culminates with Jeff’s confession and forced suicide on the roof of his house. Lesson: This one is pretty easy. While Hayley is a crazy vigilante with an awesome name, Jeff is pure evil. Don’t be an evil person, like Jeff, and don’t do sketchy shit online or offline because someone can always find out. You never know who will want to serve you up some justice. 9. LOL. Not to be confused with the Miley Cyrus movie, “LOL” is a 2006 indie flick starring Greta Gerwig. Through the stories of three college graduates Tim, Chris, and Alex, “LOL” examines the often unhealthy relationship people have with technology. Online dating is amazing, but don’t let it take over your life. Stay engaged with family and friends, and on your career and hobbies. Tim can’t take his eyes off his laptop, even as he’s making out with his beautiful girlfriend. Chris only conducts his relationships through his cellphone. And Alex’s obsession with chat rooms ruins a potential real-life relationship. Lesson: Online dating addiction and technology addiction, in general, is real, so pace yourself. Don’t stop living in the real world, neglecting your family, friends, career, health, and hobbies. Online Dating Movies — Entertaining But Also Informative!

Over the years, I’ve learned that movies provide more than just a good laugh, cry, or scare — they sometimes also provide tips that we can implement in our own lives. Next time you’re watching a new movie or rewatching one of your favorites (whether it’s about online dating or not), pay attention to the lessons that are being shared. You just might find something worthwhile!

7 Best Films About Online Dating. Movies about how we’re connected resonate with us especially when it comes to finding that perfect match. It’s convenient and easy to connect, but sometimes that can pose problems as well. Because I Said So. After a breakup, Milly’s mother Daphne gets concerned that she’ll never find someone. She places a dating ad for Milly, hoping to find the perfect match. She finds a guy, but Milly has found someone of her own. When Milly finds out about her mother’s schemes, it causes a rift between them and forces her to make a decision. Sex Drive. Ian connects with a girl online called Ms.Tasty. He pretends to be an idealized version of himself with a fake profile pic to match. Wanting to meet her, Ian and a group of his friends take a road trip in his brother’s car. Along the way, they encounter problems and Ian finds out his journey to meet Ms. Tasty may not end how he imagined. Sex Drive is one of the movies about online dating that deals with the problems that arise when you pretend to be somebody that you’re not. You’ve Got Mail. Kathleen and Joe are two bookstore owners and real-life rivals. However, under the pseudonym of a username, they start to hit it off. There’s only one catch…they can’t reveal any personal information. When Joe breaks the rule and suggests meeting up, things start to get complicated. A Case of You. When Sam falls for Birdie, he checks out her online profile. Thinking he has to impress her, he pretends to be into all the interests on her page.

When it comes to online dating, it’s important to protect yourself and make good choices. Online Dating Movies with an Impact. These movies about online dating teach us important lessons. When dating online, be honest about who you are and know who you’re talking to first before meeting up. Online dating has changed the way we meet people, and usually for the better. Just be careful and honest, because everything can have consequences. The 20 Best Movie Dates. Year in, year out, the big screen is never short of a new romcom or two. But away from the obvious romantic titles, the movies are full of other standout dating moments that make us laugh and cry for a multitude of reasons. So, without further ado, here’s a list of our favourite on-screen dates – some are meet cutes, some are breakups, some involve being in love with a phone – for your viewing pleasure. Before Sunrise – the listening booth. Frankly, we could submit this entire movie for consideration as Best Movie Date, being as it is a feature-length meet cute between Céline (Julie Delpy) and Jesse (Ethan Hawke), two strangers on a train who gradually fall in love over the course of a long Vienna night. But it’s during this gorgeous little scene where the seeds of romance first start to blossom: browsing vinyl in a record shop, the pair squeeze into an intimate listening booth, and as Ruth Bloom’s Come Home warbles in the background, Céline and Jesse exchange a nervous smile here, an awkward glance there. The chemistry, made so much more powerful by what is left unsaid, fizzles like a Viennese spritzer. If only real-life dates were like this. Wall-E – silence is golden. “Eeeeeve-aaaah.” Just when everyone’s favourite trash compactor gets the white bot to take notice of him, he gets stuck with the silent treatment. But never has a Pixar character been more chivalrous than Wall-E, putting the inanimate Eve’s safety before his own. Our favourite bit? The improvisational gondola ride through mucky waters. This series of dates may end up a little one-sided for Wall-E, but we all know it pays off in the end. Patience, as they say, is a virtue. Annie Hall – subtitles on the balcony. Woody Allen’s peerless, timeless romantic comedy features plenty of dates – of varying success – between Allen’s Alvy and Diane Keaton’s Annie. (A fanciful encounter in a cinema queue is notably great.) But this balcony scene sticks out for its perfect incisiveness. Early in their relationship, as they sip drinks on a Manhattan rooftop, Alvy waffles pseudo-intellectualism and Annie responds self-deprecatingly; on-screen subtitles convey their real thoughts (“I wonder what she would look like naked?”). The foibles and insecurities of dating, on both sides of the table, have never been presented more honestly, or more wittily. Crazy, Stupid, Love. – deconstructing the date. After initially rejecting Jacob’s (Ryan Gosling) advances at a local bar, Hannah (Emma Stone) soon finds herself back at the handsome stranger’s pad. Fascinated by the man who never struggles to take a woman home, Hannah sets out to deconstruct Jacob’s winning formula, only to discover that his secret weapon is Patrick Swayze. Though Baby Goose’s tried and tested method is made to sound borderline ridiculous by Hannah, it's the way she stands up to him that makes this the perfect date. Why? Because, although she may give in to the Dirty Dancing lift, Hannah has shown Jacob a woman who will actually require him to think. Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World – Lucas Lee fight. Not many dates end in a fistfight which sees one of the combatants explode into a cloud of a thousand coins, but not many films are like Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World. What starts out as a chilled date in the park (“chilled as in cold!”, quips Michael Cera’s dorkish hero) ends with Scott battling Lucas Lee (Chris Evans) and his team of leather-jacketed stunt men. The course of true love never ran smoothly, sure, but rarely do such courses involve a fight to the death. Once – making sweet music. The entirety of John Carney’s 2007 Oscar winner is essentially one long date. The guy and girl at its heart just never admit it. Their first proper musical encounter in a Dublin music shop is where we first fall in love with the unnamed pair, and where we’re pretty sure they start to fall in love with each other, too. For us, it’s a joy to see these two musicians at work. For them, they realise they’ve just found musical solace from their rather broken lives. (Just look at Glen Hansard’s face when Markéta Irglová starts harmonising with him.) Roman Holiday – the Spanish Steps. “Why don’t you take a little time for yourself?

Live dangerously. Take the whole day!” When Gregory Peck makes you an offer like that, it’s hard to refuse. And when Audrey Hepburn says, “I’d like to walk in the rain. maybe some excitement. ”, it is similarly very hard to flatly ignore the chance at some excitement with an icon like Hepburn. William Wyler’s Roman romcom is a star-cross’d sort of affair between a lofty princess and a lowly journalist, but the Eternal City effortlessly engenders an eternal entanglement. Bellissimo!

(500) Days Of Summer – living in IKEA. We’ve all been there. Wandering around IKEA, pretending to live in the various sections. Quirky duo Tom (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) and Summer (Zooey Deschanel) do just that in this movie date – though Tom is soon brought crashing back down to Earth when the lady of his dreams reminds him she’s not after anything serious. Way to crush his flatpack dreams, Summer. But let’s forget that for now, instead pretending we’re eating bald eagle in one of our two kitchens, just like this ultimately mismatched couple. The Social Network – you don’t mess with Rooney Mara. It’s brutal, it’s ‘blink-and-you’ll-miss-it’ dialogue-wise, and it’s undoubtedly one of the best date scenes of all time. It’s an absolute pleasure watching Jesse Eisenberg and Rooney Mara spar (it’s easy to see why the latter piqued David Fincher’s interest when it came to casting his Girl With The Dragon Tattoo), and although it’s not particularly comfortable for the pair at the table, it’s a showcase for all involved. Not least the guy in charge of the words these two spit: Aaron Sorkin. And, hey, being dumped by Erica didn’t end so badly for Zuckerberg in the end, did it? Midnight In Paris – a walk in the rain. Owen Wilson effectively embarks on three romances during this latter-day Woody Allen classic: first with his philandering fiancée, Rachel McAdams; then, with a magical past-dwelling Marion Cotillard; and finally, the present day Léa Seydoux, with whom he shares a love of Cole Porter and Paris in the rain. The climactic stroll down the banks of the Seine could so easily be clichéd, but Wilson’s stumbling and fumbling – you’d expect nothing less from a Woody surrogate – makes it utterly charming. Carrie – the prom. “It’s like being on Mars!” Ahh Carrie, it was all going so well. The golden-haired boy of your dreams asks you to the prom, you’ve been crowned Prom Queen, and you’ve finally stood up to your mother just so you could attend. Shame Chris had to mess it all up. But let’s focus on the positives before you got covered in pig’s blood, shall we? YOU WERE HAVING THE BEST NIGHT OF YOUR LIFE, CARRIE. Adventureland – Brennan gets a ride. Kristen Stewart and Jesse Eisenberg – truly, the Bogie and Bacall of the Millennial generation – first made on-screen googly-eyes at each other in Greg Mottola’s titanically-underrated teen comedy. Like some of the most powerful dates, it’s largely wordless. The pair bond over Hüsker Dü’s Don't Want To Know If You Are Lonely blasting over a car radio, and clumsily discuss university plans over a swig of vodka, but you find the frisson from reading between the adolescent lines. Silver Linings Playbook – Raisin Bran. The first of Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence’s award-winning pair-ups, David O. ssell’s romantic drama finds the duo thrown together at rather dubious stages of their respective lives. From Tiffany’s folded arms, to Pat’s choice of Raisin Bran (“it can still be a date if you order Raisin Bran”), to the Halloween setting, this diner meetup is scrappy and completely unromantic. But it’s a meet-up of two people who need each other – and the moment we (and they) recognise the depths of their undeniable chemistry. You’ve Got Mail – the coffee shop argument. Nora Ephron was the queen of romantic comedies, and You’ve Got Mail is, perhaps, the quintessence of the genre. Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, bringing a bit of old school Hollywood glamour to an achingly modern template (Emails!

Chatrooms! AOL!), indulge in a lively bit of Belligerent Sexual Tension during this memorable coffeehouse exchange. They’re spiteful and barbed but ultimately it doesn’t take a 56k modem to realise that these two are a match made in dial-up heaven. Like Crazy – wordless infatuation. Go-karting, beach dates, dancing down the street: this might just be the perfect day for this crazy-in-love couple. Felicity Jones is the British student who falls for Anton Yelchin’s American in Drake Doremus’ 2011 romantic drama. Though Jake and Anna face much hardship throughout the film (not least when the latter is banned from the US after outstaying her visa), the moments where they’re not separated by thousands of miles and stretches of ocean are simple and undeniably beautiful. 10 Things I Hate About You – paintball. Few late '90s VHS collections went without this landmark teen favourite, which presented an alt-romance to the usual prom kings and queens of high school movies. The courtship of Heath Ledger and Julia Stiles is an unconventional one: scrappy, antagonistic, predicated on a bet, and this date is as likeably messy as the rest of the movie – even if it ends, like a couple of Jane Austen lovers, with the two of them rolling around in the hay. Pitch Perfect – a movie education. She’s fun, she’s musical, but she hasn’t seen seminal '80s classic The Breakfast Club. Unforgivable? Maybe. But this does give the very smitten Jesse (Skylar Astin) an opportunity to introduce Beca (Anna Kendrick) to said seminal '80s classic. The zingy dialogue and relaxed atmosphere – until Beca’s roommate barges in – combine to make the perfect low-key date for this particular, chilled-out Barden Bella. (Even if the two are definitely-still-only-friends-promise at the time of Judd Nelson’s airpunch.) Blue Valentine – ukeleles and tap-dancing. Derek Cianfrance’s first rodeo with Ryan Gosling is a bona fide heartbreaker; and not just because of the smooth moves Baby Goose pulls on Michelle Williams at the start. Before proceedings get messy, the pair wander the New York streets together (Gosling and Williams went unscripted), falling in love and fooling around – the highlight of which has to be this infectious little ukelele number. Blue Valentine isn’t exactly date movie material, but its hopelessly romantic, optimistic parts are just as honest and touching as the segments that track this pair’s doomed marriage. The Naked Gun – montage. The Naked Gun series is bursting with parodic romance (choice quote: “she had breasts that seemed to say, ‘Hey, look at these!’”), but the date montage in the first film might be its most brilliant example. Frank (Leslie Nielsen) and Jane (Priscilla Presley), having practiced safe sex with man-size condoms, embark on the date montage of all date montages: running in slow-motion on a beach; eating candy floss; getting matching tattoos; having a ketchup fight with a hotdog vendor; having a good old chuckle at Platoon – all, as we eventually learn, in the space of a day. Something tells us we’re into something good here. Her – the beach. Even though Theodore (Joaquin Phoenix) can’t see her, she makes him very, very happy. The ‘her’ in question is Theodore’s OS system, ‘Samantha’ (voiced by Scarlett Johansson). This scene may be about Theo’s ex-wife for the most part, but the pair’s openness (again, this whole film could be viewed as one long affair) is what makes this so intimate. The most romantic part? It’s a tie between Samantha writing Theodore a song, and the way he lets Samantha’s camera peep out of his pocket so she can appreciate the view. Bless.

The AskMen editorial team thoroughly researches & reviews the best gear, services and staples for life. AskMen may get paid if you click a link in this article and buy a product or service. Relationships are the worst — and the best. That’s why we surrender ourselves to the pain and pleasure of falling in love at all cost. Some of the key ingredients of a healthy relationship include trust, communication, respect, empathy, reciprocity and boundaries, to start. Once you’ve landed all those things, your partner still needs to have the same goals as you on the journey to love. When there’s a failure to needle this delicate thread, heartbreak comes crashing down and sweeps you out to sea, leaving you battered and bruised. That description isn’t just a metaphor. Breakups are literally interpreted by the brain as physical pain, according to Psychology Today. Researchers at Columbia University found that in a fMRI scan of the brain, the same part of the brain lit up when looking at your ex-partner as when exposed to pain via a hot probe on the arm. It’s no wonder we’re obsessed with how to fall and stay in love. We’re all just trying to avoid that soul-crushing hot probe in the arm. When love dies, we’re left sorting out what went wrong. For some, mending a broken heart means creating art out of pain and for others (ahem, like us) it means watching movies about other people’s pain. Here are some great movies that depict how complicated relationships can be. Malcolm & Marie (Netflix) “Malcolm & Marie” gives us a window into one explosive night between the eponymous couple that shows the intricacy of love and resentment. Malcolm makes the mistake of not thanking Marie in a speech on the night of his film premiere — a film that she believes is based on her life. An argument kicks off as soon as they arrive home and continues for the remainder of the night. The cracks in their relationship are exacerbated by the fact that they are ill-equipped to communicate their feelings without hurting each other. There’s No “I” in Threesome (HBO Max) “There’s No ‘I’ in Threesome'' documents the relationship between Ollie and Zoe, who embark on a polyamous relationship with Tom after getting engaged. The two explore their sexual boundaries and grapple with jealousy and trust. As Zoe and Tom’s relationship grows closer, Ollie finds himself feeling like an outsider in his own relationship. A surprise twist at the end shows the complexity and consequences that comes with opening a relationship — and trying to film a documentary about it. Marriage Story (Netflix) “Marriage Story” is a subtle and nuanced look at the messiness of even the most amicable of divorces. Charlie is a successful theater director in New York City and Nicole is a former teen star that is acting in her husband’s play. Although the dissolution of marriage starts off friendly, tensions arise as Nicole hires a savvy lawyer to represent her in the negotiations for custody of their son Henry. As divorce proceedings unfold, we learn about Charlie’s infidelity and Nicole’s feelings of being neglected, as well as her ideas and desires cast aside. The two eventually reach a civil agreement and come to peace with each other as they move forward with co-parenting Henry. Blue Valentine (HBO Max) “Blue Valentine” takes us on a journey of young married couple Cindy and Dean, along with their daughter Frankie. We drop in on their relationship in different phases, starting with the end. Dean is content with his life as a painter and father, while Cindy grapples with dreams of a better life that may never be realized. Flashbacks to their passionate meeting and courting phase are juxtaposed with the bleakness of their failing marriage. It’s a poignant study of the realities of young love as it evolves into disappointment and unfulfilled desires. On the Rocks (Apple TV+) Although it’s a comedy, “On the Rocks” is a great examination of insecurity, suspicion and trust in a relationship going through changes. Laura, a novelist, is married to tech entrepreneur Dean, who is surrounded by hip, attractive co-workers. While Dean is hustling to achieve success, much of the childcare duties fall to Laura. When she begins to feel insecure about their relationship, Laura’s wealthy father Felix pushes her to investigate her husband. A hilarious series of events unfolds, as Laura discovers that a busy husband isn’t necessarily a cheating husband. Moonlight (Netflix) This beautifully made film examines masculinity and the sexual identity of Chiron — a Black man growing up in Miami. Set in three phases of his life, Chiron comes-of-age in a rough neighborhood where he struggles with his homosexuality in a hyper masculine culture. Teenage Chiron’s first sexual experience is with his friend Kevin, who kisses and then masturbates him. The two have a falling out due to peer pressure for Kevin to beat up Chiron at school. The two reconnect years later as adults when Chiron travels from his home in Atlanta back to Miami to see Kevin on a whim. Love Jones (HBO Max) “Love Jones” is a vibe – and a cool time capsule of modern love in the 1990s set to incredible music. Young Black poet Darius Lovehall and struggling photographer Nina Mosley start to date casually, after meeting in a poetry club in Chicago. When Nina’s ex-fiance attempts to rekindle their relationship, she tests the strength of her connection with Darius by spending a week in New York City with her ex. Darius plays it cool, but is quietly devastated. They reconnect and fall in love upon Nina’s return, but have to deal with trust issues which threaten to tear them apart. In the end, these two lovebirds kiss and make up in the rain in classic romance film fashion. The Big Sick (Amazon Prime) “The Big Sick” delves into the complications of interracial relationships with differeing cultural views on marriage. The film is based on the real-life relationship of married couple Kumail Nanjiani and Emily V. Gordon. Kumail’s parents want him to enter an arranged marriage, so he keeps his relationship with Emily a secret. Frustrated, Emily breaks up with him after five months together. Later, Kumail discovers that Emily has been hospitalized for a serious lung infection and has to undergo an induced coma. During Emily’s illness, Kumail stays by her side and gets close to her parents. After Emily comes out of her coma, the couple still have to deal with his disapproving parents. But ultimately, love prevails. Palm Springs (Hulu) This rom-com with a sci-fi twist is a hilarious take on relationships that we choose based on scarcity of choices and the insecurity that comes within that type of union. Nyles and Sarah find themselves in a time-loop set on the day of Sarah’s sister’s wedding in Palm Springs. After spending endless days with each other, the two fall in love, but grapple with their demons. When Sarah disappears, Nyles falls into despair and begins a phase of introspection. Turns out Sarah thinks she’s found a way out of the time loop, which leaves the couple with the question of whether or not they would choose each other in the real world. The Danish Girl (Netflix) “The Danish Girl” is a fictional story about the marriage of Danish artists Lili Elbe née Einar Wegener and Gerda Wegener. Einar begins to embrace his true gender identity as a woman when his wife begins to paint him dressed as a woman. With Gerda’s support, Einar begins to spend more time in the world as Lili, even finding love. While living in Paris, Lili gets help from his old childhood friend, Hans, to find a doctor to perform sex reassignment surgery — a first for the time. Lili proceeds with the dangerous procedure and dies from complications with Gerda by her side. La La Land (Cinemax) Get ready to cry your eyes out for the one that got away. This musical cuts to the core complication of young love: diverging paths due to flourishing careers. With incredible music and art design as their backdrop, Mia and Seb meet in Los Angeles as they struggle to break into their respective entertainment careers as an actress and musician. The two hit a speed bump in their relationship when Seb’s music career takes off and he finds himself on the road, leaving Mia at home missing him. Things come to a head when Seb misses Mia’s one-woman show prompting a break up. When Mia gets her big break, it’s the final nail in their relationship’s coffin. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (Peacock) “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” is a mind-bending sci-fi take on a love story told in reverse. We begin with Joel and Clementine meeting on the beach in Montauk. They are immediately drawn to each other, but soon find out that they have a past. Turns out they’ve both hired Lakuna Inc. to erase their memories of each other, after a recent breakup. As we follow Joel’s journey to erase Clementine, we see beautiful moments that Joel is desperate to hang onto. The potential loss of these memories forever are what’s so devastating about the idea of erasing your ex-love. When all is said and done, Joel and Clementine 2.0 decide to take a chance on each other all over again. AskMen may get paid if you click a link in this article and buy a product or service.

Love is never simple in a Jane Austen narrative. In Pride & Prejudice, Mr. Darcy is a man in love with Elizabeth Bennet—but has a hard time making that known.

Watch Now. All aboard James Cameron’s epic melodrama about love on the high seas. Even though the film snagged a boatload of shiny statues, its narrative harbors a fate not nearly as joyous. Feelings about the extra real estate on the big floating door aside, we’d have it no other way. For Jack and Rose, our hearts will go on. Watch Now. Grab a plus-one for Malcolm D. Lee's wedding drama starring Taye Diggs, Sanaa Lathan, and Morris Chestnut.

But, oh, the chemistry between Lathan and Diggs. Watch Now.

It's a fact: the love between Westley and his Buttercup is not only strong, but it is true. How true?

Watch Now. Giving new meaning to hot chocolate, Alfonso Arau’s treat of a romantic drama belongs to a cook whose desires are baked into her dishes, filling all who dine on her feasts with whatever emotion she was feeling at the time of conception.

Based on the same-name story by author James Baldwin and featuring a simply sublime soundtrack, Barry Jenkins’s superb film stars KiKi Layne and Stephan James as Tish and Fonny, teen sweethearts who are ripped apart when Fonny is falsely accused of rape by a racist cop. A guy who stands up to your father is such a turn-on.

Soul music, naughty dance numbers, cabin lovemaking—it has everything a good Bible Belt movie needs. Watch Now.

One very necessary ingredient in a successful love story?

Passion. And the passion simmering beneath the surface of Céline Sciamma’s award-winning romance is just begging to ignite.

Old Hollywood icons Marlene Dietrich and Gary Cooper lock lips for the better part of this 1936 Frank Borzage rom-com set in Spain. It follows a French jewel thief and the American holding onto her pearls, and, we have to say, it doesn't get much more romantic than those long, golden-age kisses. Watch Now. A triptych narrative told over several decades, Moonlight is many things: It’s soaring, it’s heartbreaking, it’s undeniably romantic.

Watch Now. Don’t act like cartoons can’t make you swoon. Disney taps into enchantment with an animated tale as old as time: Cursed man must make woman love him to break the spell. Not only were audiences whisked away, but the Academy also—this was the first animated film to receive a Best Picture nom. Watch Now. This iconic Frank Capra-directed Best Picture winner has a title that could be referring to one of two things: 1) that time Clark Gable’s Peter and Claudette Colbert’s Ellie fell for each other, or 2) that time one film influenced every single romantic comedy that came after it. Watch Now. A sweeping lark that allows its Hokkaido, Japan scenery to fill every pixel of your screen, this Chinese blockbuster follows an odd couple whose chance encounter via online dating is the beginning of a beautiful relationship. Peppered with deadpan humor, it’s not your typical romantic watch—but that is what you’ll love most about it.

As much an ode to NYC as it is a modern take on the Cinderella fairy tale, Top Five might just be worthy of your top five. Watch Now. Four Great Dating Movies. There are numerous dating movies out there that offer great advice on how to approach the topic of romance. While you might be tempted to list the catalog of Nicholas Sparks, that’s not about dating- that’s about super sappy romance and we’re not discussing them. Instead, we’re looking at movies about people that tried to pretend they’re someone they’re not. These films teach us to be ourselves in any situation. Here you can find great examples of real dating profiles and see how they perform. You’ve Got Mail. You’ve Got Mail features a man and a woman who begin an online dating romance with each other. Unfortunately for the both of them, they’re business rivals and they don’t get along in person as a result. One of the most important parts of the movie happens when Tom Hanks’ character goes to meet his online friend in the real world. He discovers it’s someone he doesn’t like, but he isn’t honest and pretends that he’s someone else online. While you can argue that his relationship would never have developed as completely if he had been honest the first time they met, it would have been a good thing for him to do. After all, if someone can’t stand you in person, then why should you settle for dating them online?

Eurotrip. Eurotrip is a movie that has a big problem to start: a misunderstanding on the part of the man. He thinks that his German pen pal is a man and his very good friend. In reality, it’s a woman that Scotty eventually realizes has a lot in common with him. While this might not be a problem of honesty so much as a lack in judgment on Scotty’s part, the fact of the matter is that clarity is important when starting any relationship. It is far more important when having a relationship online because there are so many ways that information can be misconstrued by people. As a result, it’s always going to be important for you to tell someone precisely what you mean, even if you are a little more direct than you’re used to being. Must Love Dogs. Honesty is the best policy. In Must Love Dogs, the two love interests don’t even want to date at first. When Sarah is dishonest in her profile picture and Jake is not honest about owning a dog, things turn awkward in a hurry. There are several important points to make about this topic. First off, you must use the right information in your dating profile. Don’t say that you want someone that likes dogs if it’s not a non-negotiable for you, for example. Also, it’s a good idea for you to be upfront about what you are looking for in a match. People often use dating profile pictures that stretch the boundaries of tasteful in many ways. When you’re online, it’s only fair to use an unfiltered, recent, and properly angled picture so your date knows what to expect out of you. Don’t surprise them with ten extra years and fifty extra pounds- it’s a charade that can only end badly. If it wasn’t for the precise circumstances of this movie, Sarah and Jake would have never gotten together. Sex Drive. There are so many different facets of Sex Drive that are dishonest that it’s tough to pull them all apart. Let’s just start with the basics of Ian Lafferty being a liar and a thief as he attempted to get a woman to like him online. Then, he goes off to find her in real life and things just go off the rails. re, this movie is a lot more of a comedy than some of the others that we’ve listed here. Yet, the lesson remains the same. People have to be good and honest when they’re online and looking for love. Otherwise, you’ll have to keep pretending to be someone that you’re not, and that can only end badly. Again, spend some time making sure that your profile is up to date, tells people precisely what you are all about, and is honest. You’ll have no trouble avoiding all the problems that come up in the movies. There are a wide variety of movies that approach the topic of romance from every possible angle. Yet, when it comes time to be an authentic person for your partner, you need to remember that being true to yourself is the first step toward being honest with them. Take some time to get to know who you are and what you want when you are looking for romance. Otherwise, you’ll have to go through some serious trials like these movie protagonists to finally figure it all out. About Anastacia Newlin.
