With all the brouhaha over Valentine's Day, perhaps you might have lost the mood for Valentine's Day. You should not - because Valentine's Day should be celebrated everyday! If you are feeling blue because of work or other reasons, you might want to check out some of my favorite movies for the right mood :-).



* "The Notebook"
* "La Vie En Rose"
* "Love Story"
* “An Affair to Remember”
* “Beauty and the Beast”
* "Captain Corellis' Mandolin"
* “Chocolat”
* “Last of the Mohicans”
* "Moonstruck"
* “You’ve got Mail” etc etc...

If you love to read, perhaps you might want to check out the following movies which were based on books :-).

* "Anthony and Cleopatra"
* "Avatar"
* "Casablanca"
* "Count of Monte Cristo and Mercedes" from Alexander Dumas
* "Dr. Zhivago"
* "From Here to Eternity"
* "Ghost"
* "Heathcliff and Cathy" from “Wuthering Heights”
* "Lady and the Tramp"
* "Lancelot and Guinevere" from King Arthur's Round Table Legend
* "Roman Holiday"
* "Romeo and Juliet"
* "Scarlett O’Hara and Rhett Butler" from Margaret Mitchell's “Gone With the Wind”
* "The Way We Were"
* "Titanic"
* "Tristan and Isolde"
* "West Side Story"

Of course, let's not forget unforgettable love stories. In many of these stories, couples unite but someone else often gets hurt or is left behind in the process. Among these are:

* Brangelina - Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie
* Faith Hill and Tim McGraw
* Celine Dion and Rene Angelil
* Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton
* Prince Charles and Camilla Parker-Bowles
* Prince Edward and Mrs. Simpson

Some of the most romantic songs I love would include:

* If I Should Love Again
* Nothing's Gonna Change My Love For You
* The Way We Were
* Tonight I Celebrate My Love For You
* Endless Love
* Theme from "Winter Sonata"
* And I love you so
* The Way You Look Tonight

Please feel free to add on to the above categories. I would love to hear your views. Despite my romantic and sentimental nature, I have not celebrated Valentine's Day for over two decades. :-) The reason is in the first paragraph of this post. Nonetheless, it is very meaningful and significant for those who are just beginning to grow in the throes of love.

Wherever you may be, may you and yours be filled with a love that lasts forever!
