We’re In Love With These Movie Moments

Valentine’s Day is coming up and we all know what that means – all the romantic movies get pulled out! Whilst you sit through these with your girlfriends or star of a boyfriend, you can’t help but linger on the romantic gestures. This got us thinking about how much we’d love to be on the receiving end of some of these movie perfect moments…

The Big Number Love

In 10 Things I Hate About You, Heath Ledger’s character, bad-boy Patrick Verona, breaks character in the ultimate gesture: He blasts out “Can’t Take My Eyes Off of You” to Julie Stiles’s character Kat, monkeying around the bleachers, clowning about and dancing to the high school marching band showing that he’s not all just brooding cool.

The Love Without Barriers

There’s no denying that Pretty Woman is a cult classic. Edward Lewis turns a “business arrangement” into a modern day fairytale when he acts out Vivian’s fantasy of a knight in shining armor scaling her apartment block to rescue her. Of course, the twist is perfect, as she’s rescued him too. Aww.

The Love That’ll Never Die

Shakespeare was the master of love, penning plays which spun countless romances. In Shakespeare In Love, it’s William’s turn to experience a deep and profound love with Gwyneth Paltrow’s character, Violet. This is a forbidden love which cannot be, so, William immortalises her in a play which will be performed for all time.

The Love That Just Got Real

In Juno the spunky pregnant teen gets to the end of the movie and realises that she’s head over heels with her best friend (and father of her baby) Paulie Bleeker. An unexpected will-they-won’t-they story gets the sweetest of endings when Juno finally tells Paulie in her own, quirky way – filling his mailbox with boxes and boxes of his favourite orange Tic Tacs!

The Love That Doesn’t Need Words

80s flick Say Anything… proves that words aren’t needed to say ‘I love you’. Lloyd Dobler simply rocks up under Diane Court’s bedroom window, holds up a boombox above his head and lets “In Your Eyes” do all the talking.
