Best Romance Movies of the Past 5. Years. 1 of 5. 0Equals (2. The pick could have easily been Moonlight or La La Land but there's no need to pit these Best Picture nominees against each other yet again. Equals follows a tried and true forbidden love formula but, damn, is it an emotional wrecker.
In the film's feeling- less dystopian society, two perfect human specimens (Kristen Stewart and Nicholas Hoult) accidentally catch feelings for each other, and what starts off as a steamy secret affair becomes a profound statement of love. Seriously, have some tissues on hand. Advertisement - Continue Reading Below. Carol (2. 01. 5). Carol is the most romantic movie of this century—there, I said it. In this 1. 95. 0s- set melodrama about two women who fall in love with each other, director Todd Haynes shoots with such tenderness that it will take more than just a single viewing to catch all the intonations and hand touching that add up to the film's lingering romantic subtext.

Yes, absolutely. And the amorously titled Amour is certainly no feel- good film. Jean- Louis Trintignant and the late great Emmanuelle Riva meet a disturbing fate as Georges and Anne while Haneke brutally drags the audience along with the deteriorating couple. But there's never any question that the love between them is real—interpret that ending however you will—and that's why Amour makes this list.

After what seems like a mere one- night stand, Russell and Glen spend a passionate weekend together—filled with drugs, sex, and heated arguments. Their relationship may come with an expiration date (Glen plans to move to America) but Haigh doesn't dismiss the idea that great love can be a brief one.

Zach Braff movie The Last Kiss. That's not to say that going with a James Bond movie as this year's most romantic film was a last- ditch effort.
The sizzling chemistry between Bond and the sharp- witted Vesper Lynd (Eva Green) put all Bond- and- Bond- girl relationships to shame. And that's why the ending especially hurts.

I know this isn't the BBC Colin Firth version that launched a legion of Darcy stans, but you'd be hard- pressed not to be swept off your feet by Joe Wright's adaptation of the Jane Austen novel, which paired Matthew Macfayden's Mr. Darcy with Keira Knightley's Elizabeth Bennet.
Marion Cotillard and Guillaume Canet (later to become real- life partners) star as Sophie and Julien, who start a childhood game of dares that continue into adulthood, each getting more and more brazen—often life- ruining and life- threatening.

I've never been able to watch Sofia Coppola's Lost in Translation without becoming a complete wreck by the end. It's that final whisper between Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson—a message kept secret from viewers—that marks the end of their brief encounter in a foreign country. Lost in Translation is filled with longing glances and desires left unpursued, but remains perfect as a moment in time—awful Roxy Music karaoke rendition and all.

Secretary (2. 00. Did you realize James Spader was also named Mr. Grey in this far superior prototype of Fifty Shades? But unlike the alarming lack of spark between Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson (I blame the former), the twisted BDSM romance between this Grey and his secretary Lee (Maggie Gyllenhaal) is far sexier and surprisingly heartfelt (especially considering both parties are very down with the sadomasochism).
Maybe this isn't your kink, but it's certainly theirs—who's to say that's not romance? Advertisement - Continue Reading Below. Advertisement - Continue Reading Below. In the Mood for Love (2.

And no, mes amis, Adele does not get hit with a knife, but she does become involved in a fantastical love story instead. A win- win. Advertisement - Continue Reading Below. Notting Hill (1. 99. The lovers in Notting Hill come from different worlds—he (Hugh Grant) is a charming bookstore owner in small- town England, while she is one of the most famous American actresses (essentially Julia Roberts playing Julia Roberts)—yet they form an immediate, inexplicable, but undeniable bond.
