The Choice (2016)
IMDb
This flick is based on a Nicholas Sparks novel in which neighbors Travis and Gabby basically fall in love upon first meeting.

She's All That (1999)
Miramax
The classic high school love story between Freddie Prinze Jr. and Rachel Leigh Cook still gives us all the feels. When Prinze Jr.'s Zack is bribed by his friends to take Cook's Laney to prom (and turn her cool in the process), he ends up feeling something real instead. Our favorite part? When she trips down the stairs in that little red dress on the way to their date.

Columbus (2017)
Superlative Films
This story revolves around Jin, a Korean-born man who ends up in Columbus, Indiana, to stay with his estranged architect father, who is in a coma. While there, he crosses paths with an architecture aficionado named Casey who works at the library—and who is dealing with family obligations of her own. Can the two balance their love with for each other with what they're dealing with with their families?

Sense & Sensibility (2008)
Amazon
When you need a little romance in your life, there's nothing like a Jane Austen novel adapted into a movie. In this classic story, sisters Elinor (sense) and Marianne (sensibility) navigate love and life after their father passes away, leaving his inheritance to his first wife and son. Watch it for the 1800s society drama, gorgeous clothing, and a happy ending (of course).

Punch-Drunk Love (2002)
IMDb
In this dark comedy, Adam Sandler begins dating Emily Watson, the co-worker of one of his domineering sisters who have all royally messed him up. Throw in extortion from a sex phone operator company and the question becomes: can this couple survive in the face of conflict?
Available on: Hulu
Brokeback Mountain (2005)
TVGuide
If you haven't watched this award-winning movie featuring a secret love story between two cowboys, played by Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal, now's the time. The acting has been described as nothing less than "raw" and follows the then-illicit romance that takes place over two decades and transcends marriages and time apart.
Available on: Hulu
How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003)
Paramount Pictures
You've probably seen this movie 10,000 times by now, but it's almost impossible to get tired of. Kate Hudson + Matthew McConaughey = rom-com gold. Plus, we can never resist a movie about the magazine world.
Available on: Hulu
Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994)
If Hugh Grant stars in it, we're there. This 90's comedy stars Grant as a commitment-phobe trying to reconnect with a woman about to marry a wealthy, but boring, man. It's a quirky British rom-com you'll fall in love with.
Available on: Hulu
Revolutionary Road (2008)
Amazon
Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet just love to break our poor little hearts, don't they? In this critically acclaimed period piece based on the novel by Richard Yates, we witness the potential futility and even violence of the American Dream. It's about a couple who reluctantly join in the march of conformity as it eventually leads to trouble in their marriage. Indeed, Revolutionary Road presents us with a vision of domesticity that is so ugly, catastrophic, destructive that you will probably want to sleep with the windows open. Or at least hold the ones you love just a little closer.
Available on: Hulu
A Star Is Born (2018)
IMDb
This remake of the classic tale stars Bradley Cooper as an aging rock star with plenty of demons, and Lady Gaga, a star on the rise, and they fall madly in love. Gaga's vocals are so goosebump-inducing and Cooper's signature hand-through-greasy-overgrown-hair move is so knee-bucklingly sexy that there's no way you won't leave the theater thoroughly shaken by the heart-wrenching ending.
Available on: Hulu
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004)
In this fantasy, a couple, Clementine (Kate Winslet) and Joel (Jim Carrey), undergo a medical procedure to erase their memories of each other post-breakup. What happens when you erase the memory of an entire relationship? In this movie, they not only forget about each other, but they also lose the parts of themselves that grew and evolved, thanks to the relationship. This sad but seductive movie will teach you that no matter how much grief you feel in the aftermath of a breakup, you can't just will away the memory of an ex-lover.
Available on: Hulu
No Strings Attached (2011)
Amazon
This romantic comedy stars Natalie Portman and Ashton Kutcher as two friends who decide to have casual sex with one condition—they won't fall in love with each other. Can they truly keep it "no strings attached," or will feelings develop?
Available on: Hulu
27 Dresses (2008)
Amazon
Always the bridesmaid, never the bride. We can never resist a Katherine Heigl rom-com, and this one is no exception. A perpetual bridesmaid whose sister is marrying the man of her dreams falls in love with an unlikely suitor.
Available on: Hulu
The Danish Girl (2015)
IMDb
Follow Greta (Alicia Vikander) and Einar (Eddie Redmayne) as they navigate his gender identity, revealing the transcendent power of love. This film completely contests the accepted notion of a "successful" marriage as they ultimately find other partners, all the while loving one another unconditionally. The only thing more inspiring than this film is the true relationship it was based on between Lili Elbe and Gerda Gottlieb.
Available on: Hulu
Life as We Know It (2010)
Amazon
Another Katherine Heigl flick, this one also stars Josh Duhamel. The two play polar opposite godparents in charge of their friends' child. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll feel all the feels.
Available on: Hulu
The Last Song (2010)
Amazon
See Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth star in their first (and only) film together in this Nicholas Sparks story. When Cyrus, an unruly teen from New York, is sent to her father's house in the South for the summer, she meets Hemsworth and falls in love, while also reconnecting with her estranged father, and rediscovering her love for music.
Available on: Hulu
Pretty in Pink (1986)
Amazon
Can you ever go wrong with a classic 80's rom-com? No matter how many times you watch it, this one will never get old. A romance between two unlikely high schoolers beings to feel the pressure of their peers, and it's Molly Ringwald gold.
Available on: Hulu
Isn't It Romantic (2019)
IMDb
The title basically says it all. This quirky romantic comedy stars Rebel Wilson as a New York architect, and things get weird—fast. She gets knocked unconscious during a subway mugging, and wakes up in an alternate universe. She realizes her worst nightmare is coming true—she's playing the leading lady in a real-life romantic comedy. Get ready to laugh out loud, literally.
