What are the most romantic movies of all time?
Which films are guaranteed to get you reaching for a hankie? Do you sob at black-and-white classics Casablanca and Brief Encounter? Do you weep at the close of Love Story or Titanic; stifle a tear during The Bridges of Madison County or The Notebook?
Or is the way to your heart through your funnybone? Is it comedies like When Harry Met Sally and Annie Hall that hit the romantic spot for you?
We’d love to hear which are you favourites, but in the meantime we’ve polled our writers to come up with their top cinematic romances and put the results into a top 50. Each day this week we’ll be revealing 10 of our choices.
Let us know what you think of our rankings. Which films should have charted higher – and which films have we missed out?
You can rate the romances in our chart by giving the films your own star rating – go to our film channel and get clicking.
