      WALL·Es Channel I feel like it's not just WM audience that doesn't care about classic Hollywood film, but my whole entire generation. And not just classic film, but history or anything to do with the past. Kinda of a shame because without these films we wouldn't have the the films we have today.

    I'm honestly surprised the movie "An Affair To Remember" wasn't on this list. I only saw it last year but that movie made me cry at the end with how great it was. A tragic romance that both helps and hurts the two people in it and an ending that would bring any theater goer to tears.

    "The Graduate" is a social satire and the movie version of "My Fair Lady" is far more about companionship than romance.
    No mention though of "Random Harvest", "Now, Voyager", "Dark Victory", "Sunday in the park", "Pillow talk", "An Affair To Remember", "The African Queen", "The Shop Around The Corner", "Camille" or "Gigi"?

    4) Singin in the rain (1952)
    5) Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961)
    6) From here to eternity (1953)
    7) Roman Holiday (1953)
    8) Doctor Zhivago (1965)
    9) Brief Encounter (1945)
    10) The Graduate (1967)
    Honorable mentions :
    * The Apartment (1960)
    * It happened one night (1934)

    From Here to Eternity; The Sound of Music; Now, Voyager; The King and I; South Pacific; Notorious; Rebecca; The Shop Around the Corner; An Affair to Remember
    There are so many great romance movies from that time span that it's impossible to grab them all. Audrey Hepburn is great, but you could have tossed one of her flicks out (the fantastic My Fair Lady). The movie with arguably the most romantic scene ever is missing - Deborah Kerr and Burt Lancaster kissing in the Hawaiian surf, in From Here to Eternity - a movie which holds up surprisingly well.

    • @hannejeppesen1809

      Jaylin Guerrero They're missing a lot here. Not one Hepburn-Tracy movie is featured in this list (hello, Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?). Now, Voyager should also be a strong contender. And I fail to see how Singin in the Rain is romantic. The love affair between Kelly & Reynolds characters was more of a side story.

    Marty is an absolute favorite of mine, because it’s such a down-to-earth, slice-of-life kind of film about a man who thinks he’s a loser who suddenly stands up for himself and finds someone who makes him happy and he makes her happy too. Romance films about people who’re lonely and miserable suddenly finding love does give me a warm feeling that anyone can find love and happiness in their lives. You just gotta learn to love yourself first.

    Also, while Audrey Hepburn made many great romantic films, her films should've been limited to 1 or 2 or given a list of her own. Overall, the list was better than I expected, considering not very many people are very familiar with classic films.
