So you’ve got a nice bottle of wine in the fridge, a meal in the oven, your date will be over in about 30 minutes and you want to have a chilled night in where you can just cuddle up on the couch.

Alternatively, you may be single and longing for a relationship but finding it a bit tricky, and just want to lose yourself in a chic flic.

I’ve done the hard work for you and chosen the top 10 romantic movies that will create the atmosphere you are after, so get out your Blockbusters card and head down the shops (obviously if I have missed any off then .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) and I’ll add to the list):

KEY DESCRIPTION:
STORY – How good the storyline is.
SNOGABILITY – The likelihood of a snog during the film.

Dirty Dancing

Every ladies favourite movie. This pulls the hardest of heart strings and there’s a little bit of action for the boys. If you haven’t seen it yet there’s loads of dancing and snogging and not a bad story line.

Snogability 6/10

Titanic

Another modern Hollywood blockbuster classic offering a few fight scenes, drama of a sinking ship and a love story that will have you gripped throughout. It’s 3 hours long so make sure you get really comfortable!

Snogability 5/10

Splash

An 80’s classic and Tom Hanks at his best. All about a mermaid who falls in love with Mr Hanks. Great story that’s easy to follow and a good laugh. Is a little dated now (fashions etc) and a little childish, but it presents some hugely romantic moments.

Snogability 8/10

Pretty Woman

Now I’d be surprised if none of you have heard of this one, it’s about a hooker (Julia Roberts) who gets into Richard Gere’s car, by mistake of course and the rest is history. It’s one of those you drag out because you have both seen it but want to make a move on the other so won’t be too bothered about missing any of the storyline.

Snogability 10/10

When Harry Met Sally

Another timeless classic all about the fact men and women can’t be friends because the sex part always gets in the way, and the film goes on to explore this notion. It’s the film with the famous faked orgasm in the café… very funny! A nice light entertainer.

Snogability 7/10

Four Weddings & a Funeral

An English classic with a huge raft of stars. Like the title suggests, there are 4 weddings and one funeral to contend with. If you want a bit of slapstick comedy with a squeeze of romance then go for this one.

Snogability 6/10

Ghost

Patrick Swayze at his best. A quite in depth story about love and deception and the notion of …. You guessed it ‘ghosts’. Very cleverly portrayed film offering a little more than romance and focussing on the dark side a little. A cracking story though.

Snogability 4/10

Casablanca

What list would be complete without this 1942 epic tale. Don’t expect much snogging in this one as the story line is too good to miss. On most of the most romantic movies listed on the web, it always appears. Don’t be put off by it being black & white, this adds to the romance it portrays. Humphry Bogart is a true legend in this one.

Snogability 3/10

Bridget Jones

The film where Rene Zellweger dorns her poshest English accent and has a couple of romantic encounters, with only one true winner.  It’s a great comedy so nice and light if you are looking more for snogs.

Love Story

This is arguably one of the best love stories to be found today. It’s your typical tear jerker so be ready with a tissue. Produced in 1970, this is another film that just doesn’t seem to date. Sends your emotions into a spin.
Story 9/10
Snogability 3/10

Gone With The Wind

One recommended by you and a true classic. Although it’s shot in three-strip Technicolor and produced back in 1939, it’s considered the most beloved, enduring and popular film of all time. Featuring Clark Gable and set in the American Civil War its a story of love and danger.  A bit of a tear jerker to be honest.
