Time for LOVE movies

I enjoy love movies. I believe we should all relax with love movies from time to time.  Love  hormones are good for the soul and the body.

Here is a list of some very fine ones:

"Beautiful" - an older movie, classified as a "chick flick" - funny and some good lessons in many ways.
An Atlantic Alliance film. Classified as PG.

"Charlie St. Cloud" - a recent movie with the relative new-comer Zac Efron.  As it says on the front cover - "Heartfelt and Powerful" - a Universal Pictures - classified as PG.  Again certain things in life pull us down and we have to pull ourselves up and move on, sometimes love gives us the victory.

"Sleepless in Seattle" - ah one of my very favorites. Love can come in different ways for sure. The one scene when the main character is asked by a radio host what he loved about his late wife, and his answer "do we have all night" still breaks me up. But love lost does not mean we cannot find love again.

"The World Trade Center" - yes a movie about 9/11 and two firemen caught in the ruins - a true movie about two real life firemen. It actually did happen. A movie by Paramount Pictures - rated as PG. Very moving and inspiring.

"The Lake House" - 206 Warner Brothers movie - rated as PG - a love story in a science-fiction setting.
The front cover says "A rare and unique love story. There should be more movies like this one." It stars Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock. Yes very enjoyable.

"My Life" an older movie by Columbia Pictures - rated PG - staring Michael Keaton and Nicole Kidman. The back says "...family love story about a high-powered executive, diagnosed with terminal cancer, who's forced to make plans for his unborn son. And so he begins filming a home movie, MY LIFE, in which he teaches his son all the things a man must know: how to shave, how to slam dunk and, most of all, how to love."
Yes a fine movie indeed.

"Somewhere in Time" - another old movie - Universal Studios - rated PG - staring Christopher Reeve (Superman movies) and Jane Seymore.  A science-fiction of time travel in the story of love.  Very nice and interesting love story movie.

"A Walk to Remember" - Warner Brothers picture - rated PG - 2002 movie.  A touching love story. Love brings together what peer pressure and lifestyles seek to keep apart in this coming-of-age story. A movie about trust, hope, goals, faith, unconditional love. The remarkable steps to a life changed - and to  a "A Walk to Remember."

"The Time Traveler's Wife" - 2008 Alliance Films - rated PG.  A love story on science-fiction time travel.  As it says on the back: "Loose yourself in timeless love, with this gloriously romantic story of the journey of two hearts."
It is a movie that weaves together destiny and devotion, past and future to turn an extraordinary love into an extraordinary love story.
