Here are 12 of the most romantic TV and movie scenes that will melt your heart. (Do be warned, spoilers ahead!)
1. When Harry Met Sally
When Harry Met Sally is a classic for a reason: it’s utter perfection. With direction by Rob Reiner and screenplay by Nora Ephron, you know it’s going to be good. And the final scene is one of the best in romantic comedy history. But don’t take my word for it:
2. Love, Actually
Whether you love it or hate it, Love, Actually really does have some romantic storylines. While most people reference the exchange between Mark (Andrew Lincoln) and Juliet (Keira Knightly), I think the most romantic scene actually has to be between Jamie (Colin Firth) and Auriela (Lucia Moniz), when Jamie surprise Auriela and proposes to her in (broken) Portuguese:
3. Brooklyn Nine-Nine
Another romantic proposal scene happens on Brooklyn Nine-Nine:
4. Up!
The opening montage. That is all. (Warning: You will want to grab tissues. Trust me.)
5. The Notebook
“It wasn’t over. It’s still not over.”
6. Bridgerton
In season two of Netflix’s smash hit series Bridgerton, Kate Sharma and Anthony Bridgerton confess their love to one another in the gardens at a ball. There are literal and metaphorical fireworks:
7. New Girl
Nick and Jess’s first kiss on New Girl basically stops time:
8. Schitt’s Creek
This scene of Patrick serenading David is…simply the best. It’s a scene where David finally begins to open up and welcome Patrick’s love fully.
9. The Princess Bride
The scene when Buttercup and Westley reunite is both romantic and hilarious:
10. Fleabag
In the final moments of Fleabag, Fleabag confesses her feelings to The (Hot) Priest. After Fleabag tells The Priest she loves him, The Priest responds, “It’ll pass.” It’s devastating but it’s also an incredibly poignant and romantic scene. Now, you may be thinking, “Huh, how is rejection romantic?” Because confessing love, whether it can last or not, is always a worthy endeavor. Not only that, Fleabag admitting how she felt to The Priest is a true sign of her growth and healing. The point is that love changes you, no matter how fleeting:
11. Romeo + Juliet
1996’s Romeo + Juliet staring Clare Danes and Leonardo DiCaprio is a modern retelling of the tragic Shakespeare play. The scene of the initial meeting of Romeo and Juliet is incredibly beautiful and poignant:
12. Say Anything
And finally, the boombox serenade from Say Anything has become one of the most iconic romantic scenes in movie history:
