If you, like myself, are a lover of the most interesting, beautiful, romantic yet funny, romance movies, then I have it all simple for you: a list of the best films that I have watched in more than twenty years.
It's about those movies that make your heartbeat, your emotions thrive, lift your mood, while they make you feel like you are in heaven - or almost.
You are transported in a world where love exists and is possible, with its multiple splendor facets and shades (as Nat King Cole sings, in one of his memorable songs).
So, here's a collection of the best titles, to simplify your researches.
Not in a particular order of appearance, these movies are, in my opinion, those to "see in a lifetime".
